I had never been there and I only knew it because I was from the province of Alessandria. I must honestly say that it is a wonderful location for weddings and other events. The structure and its parks are already a gem that with a few flowers added for the event I attended, gave a splendor that I never expected. I can safely give a 10 rating in everything including the service. I highly recommend it even if I'm not biased. Congratulations to all.

The location deserves 5 stars and deserves a property worthy of the place. Unfortunately, I was able to see that impropriety and rudeness are part of the owner's baggage. The wedding of our son, planned for two years, had an unworthy ending with a call from the police from an elusive resident who had complained. In the end it was understood that they had probably been called by the lady and her husband. Stupid move because the music had stopped half an hour earlier when with arrogance and rudeness the "castellana" had interrupted the party that was taking place in a correct and polite manner, given the education and the very high level of the guests. To put an end to the antics, as the father of the groom, I assumed responsibility for everything and handed my documents over to the Carabinieri and made myself available to them. An unworthy ending given the conditions promised by the owner two years in advance and changed three days before the event, after having received the balance from me. Stay away from this arrogant, rude and unfair person. Shame !

Trencín Castle

Trenčín Castle is relatively large renovated castle, towering on a steep limestone cliff directly above the city of Trenčín. It is a dominant feature not only of Trenčín, but also of the entire Považie region. The castle is a national monument.

History of the castle cliff dates back to the Roman Empire, what is proved by the inscription on the castle cliff proclaiming the victory of Roman legion against Germans in the year 179.

Today’s castle was probably built on the hill-fort. The first proven building on the hill was the Great Moravian rotunda from the 9th century and later there was a stone residential tower, which served to protect the Kingdom of Hungary and the western border. In the late 13th century the castle became a property of Palatine Matúš Csák, who became Mr. of Váh and Tatras.

Matúš Csák of Trenčín built a tower, still known as Matthew’s, which is a dominant determinant of the whole building.
