A very beautiful and well-preserved castle. Visiting the castle is free, but you can leave voluntary contributions in the small box at the entrance. In the castle, you will see various rooms, rooms arranged for children's play. You will also find quite a few hidden corners to explore. Many interesting events also take place at the castle. You have a nice view from the top. I recommend a visit. The castle is very interesting.

Free to enter this castle. Parking on site. It's definitely a place designed for kids, as there are some play areas and child like things. However it'd also nice for people who like history and castle. Located right on main road in Zuzemberk and on the river Krka. Worth a few pictures.

Nice castle with an amazing view of the river and village. Suggest to visit the castle first then drive down park before the bridge then you can wander around a little village to enjoy a beautiful river. This one is the cold river even in summer.

Beautiful castle surrounded by beautiful scenery. The view of the castle is probably the nicest from the river bank. You can even swim there.

Nice ancient castle which is open to the public with no entrance fee. During season, they're having events in the patio

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.
