Golnik

Golnik (pronounced [ɡɔlˈniːk] or [ɡɔu̯ˈniːk]; German: Gallenfels[2]) is a village in the Municipality of Kranj in the Upper Carniolan region of Slovenia.

Its location, good humidity conditions, and high number of sunny days per year have contributed to it becoming a leading health care centre in the region.

A 16th-century castle is part of the hospital complex and it is surrounded by a park designed by the architect Ivan Vurnik.

The manor was constructed by the noble Kreutzer family, giving it its other name, Kreutzhof.

In 1917 it was seized by the state in lieu of payment and subsequently used as the first location of Golnik hospital.
