Trenčín Castle, Medieval castle in Trenčín, Slovakia
The castle stands on a steep limestone cliff above the Váh River, consisting of extensive fortifications, multiple palaces, and defensive towers.
The castle's foundations date back to Roman times, with an inscription from 179 AD marking a victory of the Second Roman Legion at Laugaricio.
The castle museum displays collections of period furniture, weapons, and archaeological artifacts that represent the heritage of the Považie region.
Visitors can access the castle through a path from the town center parking lot, with guided tours available from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM during summer months.
The castle features the Well of Love, which took 40 years to dig through solid rock to provide water for the fortress inhabitants.
