Castle Belaj

Tucked away in the hills of central Istria, just 40 minutes from the coast and easily accessible from cities like Pula and Rijeka, Castle Belaj is one of Croatia’s most enchanting wedding venues. This 16th-century baroque castle sits at the heart of a working vineyard estate, offering couples a breathtaking blend of history, nature, and quiet luxury.

 

 

The castle overlooks endless rows of vineyards and rolling countryside, creating a stunning backdrop for your ceremony, reception, and every magical moment in between. With its own private chapel, open courtyards, grand dining hall, and authentic wine cellars, Castle Belaj is a venue that truly has it all. Indoors and out.

 

 

Whether you're planning an intimate elopement or a celebration for 100+ guests, the space adapts beautifully to your vision. There's even on-site parking and the option for nearby guest accommodations, so your guests can celebrate stress-free.
