Behind the Castle Bars

When we speak of castles we cannot help but mention the dungeons and punishment. And the Ljubljana Castle is no exception to that. The dungeons, cells and solitary confinement have long held prisoners, such as rebels and reformers, soldiers and civilians, the rich and the poor, freethinkers and political insurgents. Actors in costumes will act out short scenes portraying all the woes of those held captive, and especially the various methods of punishment used since the medieval times onwards.
