Kisvárda Castle, Medieval castle and theatre in Kisvárda, Hungary.
The castle features thick brick walls, a deep moat, and a central courtyard encircled by remnants of defensive structures and residential quarters.
Construction of the fortress began in 1475 under the Várdai family after receiving permission from King Sigismund to build a stone stronghold.
The transformed castle grounds now serve as a regional theater center, hosting performances and exhibitions throughout the year in northeastern Hungary.
Visitors can explore the castle's preserved medieval architecture, walk through its renovated chambers, and attend cultural events in its modernized spaces.
The fortress stands on marshy terrain, using local clay as building material, which influenced its construction methods and defensive capabilities.
