A bit of a walk from the road but we'll worth it. What a stunning castle & grounds, hanging off the cliff side. What a way they must have lived. Definitely worth a half day.

Kmiklic

Very pleasant time spent in the castle as well as in the park around the castle. The ticket is 12 Euros. The accommodation is by the sea and the view is fantastic from every room. 10 minutes from the city center

Lubos was very nice, professional and accommodating, but I was unable to make the trip. Bless Lubos!

You can not go to Trieste and not visit this beautiful castle! It should be a requirement of any visit. I was born in Trieste and ensure I do at least one visit of the castle and it’s garden each time I go back. In recent years a new director of the park has revitalised the place and helped to return it to it’s former glory. Definitely visit and go inside of you have never done so. It’s magical and the story of its creation and history is both tragic and beautiful

It was very pretty and great castle experience. Views from inside and outside of the castle were amazing. Nice photos can be made easily.

It was easy to arrive by bus from Trieste, then more difficult to find the Castle, but once we entered the park from the beautiful port of Grignano it was one wonder after another. The park, the castle, the history in the rooms and a splendid nature that envelops Miramare Castle. I would like to go back in spring, perhaps with the sun and lots of flowers in the park!

The Miramare castle which rises above the sea is breathtakingly beautiful. The original interior perfectly preserved, unique! The large park with panoramic views is also beautiful. Absolutely not to be missed.
