Interview for Primorske Novice News
In an article published by Nataša Hlaj for Primorske Novice, an aerial view of Socerb Castle revealed the extent of neglect affecting one of the region’s most prominent cultural landmarks.
The images exposed disordered surroundings, visible traces of inappropriate material storage, and interventions that clash with the historical and landscape value of the site.
Heritage researcher Juan Pablo Maschio commented on the situation, stressing that such conditions undermine the dignity and significance of the castle. He pointed out that, despite its outstanding location and symbolic importance, the management of the site lacks a comprehensive approach that respects both its historical fabric and its broader cultural context.
The article raises wider questions about responsibility, maintenance, and the long-term care of heritage sites, using Socerb Castle as a clear example of the challenges faced by cultural monuments today.
