The castle, or rather the Anchenstein Palace (Slovene: Grad Borl), was built on a 60-meter-high rock overlooking the Drava River. The first written mention dates back to 1255. The castle has changed owners several times, including the Lords of Ptuj, the Hungarian King Matthias Corvinus, and the Thurns. Today, it is owned by the Republic of Slovenia and is available for events.
