Kamerlengo Castle (Croatian: Kaštel Kamerlengo; Italian: Castello del Camerlengo) is a castle and fortress in Trogir, Croatia.

History

[edit]

The castle was built in the mid-15th century by Marin Radoj as part of an expansion of the Veriga Tower, built on the site in the late 14th century.[1] It is used as a location for performances during the summer months. The word kamerlengo (Italian: camerlengo) refers to the title of an administrative official (a chamberlain).
