Kroatien 53270 Senj Nehajeva bbNehaj Fortress, built by the Uskoks in 1551-1558, is enthroned above the town of Senj. The side length of the square ground plan of the castle is 23.5 m and has a height of 18 m. For a long time the fortress was considered impregnable, which explains the name - Nehaj means ´fear nothing´.
During renovation work in 1965, the remains of a small 11th century church were found in the basement. A tablet in Glagolitic script, the oldest Slavic script, from the 11th century was also discovered during this work and can be seen in the castle.
