Nevitsky castle

The castle has a fascinating history and was built in the XIII century on the site of a wooden structure. Originally it was built as a defensive fortress and played a significant role in the defense of the region. That's when the very first references to it appeared as a powerful fortification located on a section of the most important trade route on the road to Uzhgorod. Over the centuries, the castle changed hands and underwent several stages of architectural reconstruction. From a wooden structure of medieval origins to stone constructions, demonstrating an amazing combination of architectural features. High towers, defensive walls and cunning buildings will take you back to a bygone era. In 1644, it was destroyed by the Transylvanian voivode Rakoczy and has never been rebuilt since. The castle is surrounded by picturesque nature and a magnificent view of the surrounding mountains and valleys. The castle houses a museum displaying artifacts and giving an insight into the history of the region. Nevitsky castle is not only a historical monument, but also a cultural heritage site. The castle territory serves as a venue for various cultural events and festivals.
