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.

Stunning medieval castle on top of a large stone block in the middle of picturesque Slovak village. Small entrance fee is collected/required from visitors. Castle is in permanent maintenance and development state. From the village the castle entrance is less than a kilometer. After leaving the castle I recommend to climb on top of a ridge on opposite side of the access road. Only couple hundredth of meters of not very steep incline will offer beautiful view of whole castle complex. You will not be disappointed!

great place, not the biggest castle but it is easy accessible even with small kids (not good for strollers). entry fees are reasonable, everything is nicely marked, you can pay by card, you won't get lost anywhere. toilette's are nice. all is working as should. the views from every window, corner or wall is astonishing don't miss any. highly recommend.

Liked the way they are taking care of this place. Some parts are renovated and there are also some new buildings built (exhibition rooms, stage, toilets). The walk up is short - about 10 minutes from the parking. The entrance is 4,50 € and you can pay by card ? There are also souvenir shops and refreshments. Recommend :)
