A rare castle with an elevator.
The Ormož Castle is located on the south-eastern part of the Bronze Age settlement protected by earth embankment and a defensive ditch. The ditch follows the castle complex along its entire eastern side and at the end of the suburb winds towards former city gate. In the late 13th century, the lords of Ptuj erected the castle building complex. It remained in their possession until 1438, hen the family died out. After that, the ownership of the castle fell first to the Szekelys, then Turks, the Pethe family, Jožef Pauer, and finally to Wurmbrandt counts.
