Super recommended guided tour! in the castle there are many wonderful frescoes and very interesting temporary exhibitions. Obligatory stop also the castle bar which offers a substantial aperitif at a moderate price and the church which is located a few steps from the castle

Visited several times, however, today 25 September 2022 for a stroke of luck we had an exceptional guide ... Truly prepared both on the history of the castle from its origins and on contemporary art ... You spend almost 2 hours without realizing it. The castle can be reached by car with convenient parking. Beautiful view of the apple orchards. The castle is also suitable for contemporary art exhibitions .. And also for events such as weddings ... Associations etc. The castle has been restored by the municipality ... It took almost 20 years ... But now a gem to visit absolutely.

Beautiful renovated manor, owned by the municipality of Campodenno managed by the Val di Non apt. Inside you can visit many rooms, the chapel and the stables. Inside, on weekends there is a bar run by the volunteers of the pro loco. The flaw is the complete lack of furniture, most of the floors and French windows and balustrades of the time. Inside there were 3 different art exhibitions. To contextualize more, I would include exhibitions of historical objects rather than contemporary art exhibitions.

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.
