Nehaj Tower

Local nameTvrđava Nehaj
LocationSenj, Croatia

The Nehaj Fortress is a fortress on the hill Nehaj in the town of Senj, Croatia.

The name Nehaj comes from the Croatian term Ne hajati, which means 'don't care'. In Croatian this fortress has also other names, which are: Kula Nehaj, what means Nehaj Tower, and Nehajgrad, what means Nehajtown.

This name was given to the hill and the Fortress by the Uskoks, who built on the top of this hill the Fortress for defensive purposes. They gave the hill and the Fortress such a name because they wanted to emphasize to the citizens of the town of Senj, and all of those that lived in the vicinity of the town of Senj that they should not care that someone will conquer this hill or the Fortress until they are there.
