7 Castles In Montenegro<\/h2>\n

Montenegro castles are unique as the country itself, but one thing that they have in common is that they are equally splendid and impressive. Here are our picks of the top castles in Montenegro.<\/p>\n

1. Castle of San Giovanni<\/h3>\n

The castle is also known as St. John\u2019s Castle and is located 1200 m high on the hills of the same name. The castle was built by Justinian I, the Byzantine Emperor. From then on, the castle has stood through the test of time, where it has survived battles, bombings, and even earthquakes. The San Giovanni castle is protected by the municipality of Kotor, and along with the old town of Kotor, the fortifications of San Giovanni were included in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 1979 list, under the Natural and Culturo-Historical Region of Kotor. Although the castle itself is not in the best of state, the view of the Kotor Bay, from up there, is just spectacular. But, the climb up to the castle from the Old Town is not an easy one though; there is going to be a lot of huff and puff all the way up since there are about 1,350 steps that you need to climb to reach the top. It is not an easy trek at all, but the castle and the view of the bay make it worthwhile. <\/p>\n
