The castle is fabulous to see, as soon as we arrived at the site they let us in right away. Parking, on the other hand, was difficult to find because there were so many people stopping at the "beach" to swim! Tip: arrive a few hours early to get a spot, especially if you want to visit the castle in August 😉

With the tickets we booked online, we got in straight away without having to wait at the ticket office in the castle. Everything worked really well. The castle itself is a beautiful place, located directly on the lakeshore. The rooms and the exhibition are impressive. It was definitely worth a visit.

Everyone was friendly, despite the 35-38 degrees. It is a special place, you can feel it on the spot. I loved the arbor, the whole garden is special, even today... Unforgettable memory for my wife, brother-in-law and sister-in-law🇮🇪☀️⚓️❣️

I never was able to attend as I was advised part way there, from Trieste, that my husband back in Australia had had a serious car accident, and a tragedy, and we had to get back to accommodation straight away to deal with it all.

The museum itself (the inside of castle), is okay, nothing that you didn't already see somewhere else in some other castle, BUT, the castle itself (outside), the views, gardens, everything around is just wow, mesmerising. We had no problems with tickets, we didn't have to wait or anything!

Your experience

Miramare castle

Perched atop the Grignano promontory near Trieste, Miramare Castle, a former Habsburg residence, boasts stunning white architecture overlooking the Gulf of Trieste, surrounded by a 54-acre park. The park showcases a diverse array of plants, curated by the archduke during his global travels as admiral of the Austrian Military Marine.

The castle's architecture blends Gothic, Medieval, and Renaissance styles. Explore over 20 rooms, including Maximilian’s Chambers, the Throne Room, and Charlotte’s Music Room, all adorned with original furnishings and ornaments dating back to the mid-19th century. Wander through Miramare Castle Park, which includes greenhouses, stables, and the miniature 'Castelletto'. Recently restored stables now host temporary exhibitions.
