The final formation of the feudal system and the lowland colonization of the area of Carniola marked the appearance of the first major land estates. This has also led to the need for control and management of these territories. The castles thus represented the seat of administrative, economic and political affairs of the lords. The arrival of Romanesque architecture also signifies the arrival of new building elements from Central Europe, which not only left its mark on the sacral architecture, but also anchored itself in the castle architecture of Gorenjska.
