Buzet is standing on the top of hill, above the fertile river Mirna valley. It was first mentioned as the prehistoric ruin of a castle, made like the acropolis, which top people could reach climbing circularly, like to the edge of a snail shell.

The settlement runs downward slope of the hill from the north to the south. It has two town gates, four squares connected with three main streets. The main square with the parish church is chiseled out in the live rock. The water well which dates from the 18th century was once the heart of the town.
The new, modern part of the town is gathered nowadays in the bottom of the hill, in Fontana. The fairs were held there during the 19th century and the National home was built in 1907.
