As part of the full scale rehabilitation of Veliki Tabor, in 2008 the traces of painted decorations were discovered. Dating from the first half of the 19th century, the decorative paintings with vegetable and tendril motifs found on two walls of a room in the northern wing of the castle, had been coated in layers of white lime. The works to remove subsequent plasters and lime coatings, protect and reconstruct the original murals, were launched in 2009 and are still underway.
