‘A Castle By The Sea IV’

The great Welsh travel writer Jan Morris wrote of the sadness of the castle’s history in her book, ‘Trieste and the Meaning of Nowhere’.

She stated : “It stands on its promontory weeping, and to my eyes even in the sunshine its walls are never sparkling. A pleasant park surrounds it, and its rooms are full of treasures, but nobody who goes there can fail to sense its numen of regret.”
