Interiors at the Tuštanj castle in the 19th century

Abstract

The contribution speaks of the interiors at the Tuštanj castle, which Ignaz Scaria bought in 1800 from the counts Lichtenbergs, and decorated the residence in the southeast tract. By inheritance and marriage, the building came in 1873 in the hands of the former castle gardener Luka Pirnat, Keber’s from Krtina, and remained in the hands of his successors up to the present day. Some baroque inventory is preserved in four residence premises and in the attic from feudal times, classicist and Empire stoves, portraits of the Scaria and Widmayer families, and furniture and small items from the 19^th and the beginning of the 20^th centuries, from late classicism, Empire and Biedermeier to different phases of historism and secession.
