Zuzemberk Castle, Slovenia is depicted on the 3 lire value (Michel #56) of the Provinz Laibach (WWII German occupation) pictorial set of March 1945. By the time this stamp was issued, the castle had already been severely damaged by allied bombing. From Wikipedia, "The castle is believed to date back to around 1000, and the castle chapel dedicated to St. Ulrich was built in 1046. The village...inhabitants were craftsmen who traded their goods and held fairs....During the Second World War, Italian troops were stationed at the castle and guerrillas set it on fire. In February 1945, Zuzemberk, being a stronghold of German collaborators Domobranci, was attacked by allied bombers. The castle was heavily damaged but not destroyed (as the church was), and restoration work began in the 1960's."   |
