Castles, in the narrower sense of the word, are fortified premises of feudal lords, situated on secured sites. In Slovenia they originated from the Middle Ages up to the end of the 16th century, whereas in the 17th century they were already built only as an exception.

Mansions are unfortified noble buildings, made of stone, usually characterised by an agreeable position, geometrically accurate layout and an emphasised residential comfort. The architectural defence elements (small corner towers, console cornices, loop-holes and merlons) play a strictly decorative role. They were already built in the late Middle Ages, whereas from the 16th century on they present a prevailing type of the construction architecture.

Manors are stone-made seigniorial buildings, mainly built in towns.

Bourgeois houses mainly present  individual houses or group of residential buildings, built for the better-off town residents before  World War II. The autonomous buildings are to have gardens, maintained according to their original layout. By way of exception younger buildings may also be classified among the bourgeois houses, if they are built to the plans of well-known architects (ex. Plečnik, Mihevc) and their primary arrangement is preserved.
