Medija Castle (Slovenian: Medijski grad, Grad Medija, German: Schloss Gallenegg[1]) is a castle ruin located in the southern part of the settlement of Podlipovica, west of Izlake, in the Municipality of Zagorje ob Savi, central-eastern Slovenia.[2] The castle and its stables were destroyed by the Yugoslav Partisans during World War II. The castle chapel was later restored and now serves as a venue for plays, concerts, and other cultural events, as well as weddings.
The castle is best known as the supposed resting place of the polymath Johann Weikhard von Valvasor (Slovene: Slovenian: Janez Vajkard Valvasor), whose parents owned the estate, and who also spent his childhood at the castle.[3]
