  • The Tržan Castle (; or Utvrda Tržan) is a ruined medieval castle situated above the village of Modruš in the northern part of historical Lika region, central Croatia. Before (from the 11th century) the administrative seat of the former Modruš County (later renamed Modruš-Rijeka County), it is today just a ruin in the Josipdol Municipality in the southern part of the Karlovac County. Having been built on a ridge of a steep hill (670 metres above sea level) on the eastern slopes of the Velika Kapela mountain, the castle was located on a strategic place overlooking the road that connected the Adriatic Sea and the Pannonian Basin since the ancient times, precisely the Roman towns of Senia (present-day Senj ) and Siscia (present-day Sisak, and which was later, during the 18th century, reconstructed and improved under the name of Josephina road.
