stari grad Celje
knezi - danes - jutri
Izkoristite dan – doživite srednji vek!
Enjoy the day - experience the middle Ages!
Prepletanje mnogih zgodb in mitov o življenju ene najpomembnejših srednjeveških rodbin v Evropi, vabi obiskovalce
k odkrivanju Starega gradu Celje. Ljubezen, tragedije,
ljubosumje, poroke in vojne so le nekateri od motivov, ki jih
ljudska beseda obuja še danes. Na Starem gradu Celje se
ob številnih prireditvah vračamo v obdobje srednjega veka in
obujamo spomin na mogočne Celjske.
The Old Castle Celje combines many stories and myths
about the life of one of the most important medieval families
in Europe, which you are invited to explore. Love, tragedy,
jealousy, marriage and wars are just some of the motifs,
which are still alive within people’s stories. Many events in
the castle remind us of these interesting medieval times.
Kratek zgodovinski pregled:
Stari grad Celje, ki so ga Vovbržani postavili nad starim
trškim jedrom v drugi polovici 12. ali v začetku 13. stoletja,
je po izumrtju rodbine prešel v roke Žovneške gospode. Ta je
po selitvi v mesto na sotočju Savinje in Voglajne spremenila
ime v Celjske, grad pa pričela urejati v udobno stanovanjsko
rezidenco.
Brief historical overview:
The Old Castle Celje, built by the Heunburg family above the
old market town (in the second half of the 12th or in the
early 13th century), fell under the possession of the Lords
of Sanneck. After moving to the city at the confluence of
the Savinja and Voglajna rivers, they changed their name to
Counts of Celje, and began to expand the Old Castle into a
comfortable residence.
Predvsem v času Hermana II. Celjskega, ko grofje dosežejo
vrhunec svoje slave, se uspešno vmešavajo v evropski politični vrh in se povezujejo z najpomembnejšimi plemiškimi
rodbinami takratnega časa. Sigismund Luksemburški jih leta
1436 povzdigne v državne kneze. Dvajset let kasneje se s
smrtjo zadnjega moškega potomca celjske rodbine, Ulrika
II. Celjskega, konča eno najpomembnejših obdobij naše
zgodovine.
During the reign of Herman II of Celje, when the Counts
reached their peak of glory, they successfully integrated into
European politics and started interacting with the noblest
families of that time. In 1436, Sigismund of Luxembourg
promoted them into Princes. Twenty years later, one of the
most important periods of our history ended with the death
of the family’s last male successor - Ulrich II of Celje.

Vhod / Entrance
V prvi polovici 14. stoletja so Celjski grofje (1436.
povzdignjeni v Celjske kneze) na naravni vzpetini
postavili tako imenovani »bergfrid«. Obrambni stolp,
s skoraj tri metre debelimi zidovi, je služil kot zadnje
zatočišče pred napadalci. V prvem nadstropju 23 m
visokega stolpa je bila urejena temnica, nad katero
so se nahajali prostori namenjeni skladiščenju orožja
in ostale opreme. V izvirni obliki je okoli celotnega
vrhnjega nadstropja potekal obrambni hodnik.
Legenda pravi, da je zaradi neodobravanja Friderikove
poroke z Veroniko Deseniško, oče v obrambnem stolpu
držal zaprtega sina, po katerem je stolp dobil tudi ime.
In the first half of the 14th century, the Counts of
Celje (elevated to Princes in 1436) built the so–called
“bergfrid” on the natural rise. It was a defence tower,
with almost three metre thick walls, which served as the
last refuge from attackers. The tower is 23 metres high.
The entrance is, as it once was on the first floor. There
was also a dungeon in the tower, and above it rooms
intended for storage of weapons and other equipment.
There was a defence passageway surrounding the
entire top floor of the tower.
According to legend, Frederick’s father disapproved
of his son's marriage to Veronica of Desenice so he
imprisoned him in the defence tower, which was later
named after him, Frederick’s tower.
