Tinjan je oduvijek, tokom povijesti bio značajno istarasko pogranično područje. Tijekom srednjeg vijeka postao je jedan od stupova imanja Majnarda Črnogradskog u Pazinu, a zajedno s pazinskim dvorcem dobio je vjenčanu vezu pod vlašću goričkih grofova. Njima je utvrda Tinjan štitila često napadanu zapadnu granicu prema imanjima patrijarha Akvileje. Na isti način od 1374. do napoleonske vladavine štitila je svoje nove vlasnike, carsku obitelj Habsburg, od žarke granice županije Pazin prema mletačkim imanjima. Iako je sam po sebi granični grad, Tinjan nikada nije bio osamljena tvrđava, ali s druge strane od 1587. godine proglasio se gradom koji ponosno i čvrsto krasi Istru i dan danas.

Through the cultural and historical heritage, the Istrian dishes it is evident on firstsight that Tinjan adorns Istria to this day. I had an unforgettable experience with the Istrian people here, they are hospitable and accommodative. Also the fresh Istrian dishes offered in the cafes and restaurants around make me crave for another visit soon.

The ancient fortress at this place was amazing. It stood out in the middle of the town in it's own compound. We were received by the caretaker who took us round. It was well kept and the walls were strong and clean. We enjoyed learning about the history of the castle from the caretaker.

I found this place a wonderful destination for people who love to learn something about the history of a place. Tinjan has a lot of historical background and connection that would interest any history enthusiast. I enjoyed touring and learning about the history of the area as a border town. Worth a visit.
