Boldogkő Castle, Medieval castle ruins in Boldogkőváralja, Hungary.
The stone fortress stands on a 245-meter-high hill, featuring remaining walls, towers, and a wooden walkway around the ridge.
Built in 1280, the castle changed ownership from the Tomaj clan to King Ladislaus IV, remaining under royal control until the Árpád Dynasty ended.
The castle houses Central Europe's largest tin soldier exhibition, displaying detailed miniature recreations of important Hungarian military battles.
Visitors can access the castle through a wooden bridge, explore both lower and upper sections, and refresh at the medieval restaurant.
The Lion's Rock section includes a 20-meter-high knife-edge ridge with an observation platform offering views of the surrounding plains.
