Trate 7, SI-2213 Zgornja Velka




First mentioned in 1148, the Cmurek Castle stands in Trate, on a cliff above the Mura river on the border with Austria. Its name, in fact, derives from the Austrian town of Cmurek (Mureck). From 1955 till 2004 it housed the Institution for mentally disabled Hrastovec – Trate. Nine years after its abandonment the castle became a nexus for a local initiative focused on the Museum of Madness. The cross-border innovative project strives to reactualise, detabooise and revitalise the castle. With a substantial amount of voluntary work and both municipal and institutional support it has turned into a unique cultural and community venue.
