A former medieval military fortress is today a largly renovated village and one of the most beautiful cultural monuments in Slovenia. If you visit this part of Slovenia, do not miss Šmartno!
Probably built on Roman foundations, the village used to be fortified as an important settlement on the Venetian – Austrian border. The name of Šmartno comes from the St. Martin church, the biggest church in Goriška Brda with a bell tower that used to be once a fortification tower. The military character of the village started to change in 19th century, but the big renovations of the village started in 1970s.
