Bebris Castle

Mtskheta, Georgia

Bebris Tsikhe (The Elder's Fortress) is located further up the main road from Samtavro. The ruins are fun, if a bit dangerous, to climb on for views overlooking Mtskheta and the valley formed around the Mtkvari and Aragvi rivers.

My friends and I found this fort from the internet and decided to check it out. Overall, it's not bad and the view from it was amazing! The fort itself is not really well maintained, but we still enjoyed it. This fort is around Mtskheta area.

The fortress has stunning views on Mtsketa, but it needs to be renovated. Not well cared.

Needs restoration a little bit, but it’s definitely worth seeing because of wonderful views ?

The fortress is filled with animal/human p*** and very dirty. I didn't make it past the entrance as there was a danger I might step into something. Avoid.

Duino Castle

Duino Castle was built by the Wallsee family in 1389 on the cliffs overlooking the Gulf of Trieste. It replaced an older castle from the 11th century. Over time, the Wallsee family disappeared and the castle, after having been used as a prison, became the residence of the Luogar and Hofer.

At the end of the 19th century it became the property of Prince Alexander von Thurn und Taxis from the Czech branch of the House of Thurn and Taxis. It remains with the family to this day with his great-grandson Prince Carlo Alessandro della Torre e Tasso, Duke of Castel Duino the current owner. The castle has been opened to the public as a museum and park.
