The Bukovje Mansion lies in a beautiful natural environment, in the embrace of trees, nearby forests and the river Drava. The mansion is part of the former Bukovje noble estate, which also included the castle of Pukštajn, after which the area was named (Puchenstein), and the chapel of the Mother of the Seven. The chapel is the entrance point to the Bukovje estate, with the park beginning a few hundred meters behind. The park ends with the mansion, above which the ruins of the old castle Pukštajn rise. The castle holds a permanent exhibition on the Slovenian Independence War of 1991, a private bookshop, and a learning centre with a biodynamic garden.
