The fortress was built between the 14th and the 19th century. Its oldest part is the central tower. The benches and the baldachin in its ground floor are the most beautiful examples of the gothic secular plastic in north Croatia. During the wars against the Turks, it was transformed into a Renaissance Wasserburg, a fort- castle surrounded by high ramparts with bastions, surrounded by double belts of water.
In 1925 the City of Varaždin took over its ownership. In the honor of the millenium anniversary of the Croatian Kingdom, in 1925 the Varaždin City Museum was opened in the Old Town. It became home to the collections of the oldest, Culture and History department, which are displayed in its rooms even today.
