This private castle lies close to the Jable Castle. Frankly, it looks like it is about to fall apart.
It is not open to visitors, but the Krumperk Equestrian Club is hosted regularly on the meadow, sponsored by the Veterinary Faculty of the University of Ljubljana.

The current building is from 1580. The Raubers rebuilt it after taking over Krumperk Castle from the Zellenperger line, who bought it in 1410. After World War II, its furnishings were taken away and the structure was converted into a Sanatorium for wounded military officers by the communist authorities. 1953 it was subdivided into apartment housing. In 1985 the estate was taken over by the Biotechnical Faculty of the University of Ljubljana.
