Beautiful place, breathtakingly beautiful castle. Inside, it is still a bit puritanical, but they are renovating and polishing it, fortunately they keep the old condition, so the opinion about it is only positive. The sword selfie is a great idea!!! 2023 ticket price: 4 euro/person

Do NOT visit the Beckov castle! Paying 5,50 € (as of September 2022) for a person to visit a (re)construction site with almost everything closed for visitor is ridiculous and dangerous at the same time. Shame! But if you are already here, at the crossroads turn right (castle is to the left) and you will get much better views on the castle and the cemetery below for free. See attached ;)

Parts of the castle are closed to visitors because of restoration work. This boot only limits what you can see but also how you experience the place. The atmosphere was lacking because of it and also the people could be more welcoming. The birds of prey were cool to see but their caretakers acted as if we were air. So, is it worth your money? Maybe. When you're visiting individually, yes. When with a family, especially a larger one, no, then it's too bloody expensive.

I was amazed how huge the castle complex actually is - from the road it looks just a tiny building on the rock. In summer, there are stands with local products (some old-times food snack, sweets - as from the various fairs, would be very welcome), falconers with lots of birds, stage performances - giving it unusually vivid atmosphere. I liked the random expositions of the Mednyansky paintings, that perfectly fit into the walls of the castle ruins. The old (Jewish) cemeteries scattered among the hill-slopes and trees have a lovely ambience as well. The village underneath the castle has also couple of cute corners, urex sort, unreconstructed buildings that could become fancy accommodation or some tourist venues, perhaps a museum. There's a potential! Definitely worth a visit.
