Lying above the Draga valley, at the head of the Lim Fjord, is Dvigrad. An important settlement since pre-Roman times, it was abandoned in the 17th century and today is an atmospheric ruin
abandoned medieval settlement close to Kanfanar and Rovinj. we like it a lot, it is a bit spooky
Dvigrad (Twin-town) is a small medieval fort near kanfanar, which was ravaged by the plague in the early 18th century. We recommend it for history lovers.
As its very name says, it was originally two towns, Moncastello and Castel Parentino. Only Moncastello's ruins remained. Dvigrad was first mentioned in 879, when it fell under the rule of the Patriarch of Aquileia. However, it had existed long before it as a part of the Roman province settlement. Its name speaks originally of two towns. Today's ruins are the remains of the northern town of Moncastello, while the other one, Castel Parentino, was abandoned in the 10th century. Current remains represent a well preserved, typical medieval town castle. It is encircled by the two rings of town walls connected by the town gate, of which there are three just as many as its defensive towers. Distance from our Villa: 9 km, 13 minute car ride away
