Description

The city of Slunj, the Croatian Government, and an EU fond were invested in rehabilitating the old fortress. It was stabilized with a concrete beam with nails then covered with a stone wall. Our part is the stabilization of the base of the fortress and the protection of people walking nearby. In a first step Spider S3-130 mesh with nails (32 mm, length 4 m) was installed. The protection of other areas of the slope with TECCO mesh G65/3 is planned.
