Körmend Castle, Medieval castle in Körmend, Hungary.

The castle features a rectangular layout with four corner towers, decorated with baroque elements and surrounded by extensive gardens and fortification walls.

First documented in 1238 as Curmend, the castle served as a royal seat until 1604 when Emperor Rudolf granted it to the Batthyány family.

The castle contains collections of historical artifacts, including furniture, paintings, and documents that belonged to the Hungarian aristocratic Batthyány family.

The castle museum opens daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, offering guided tours in Hungarian and English through its renovated rooms and gardens.

Doctor László Batthyány-Strattmann operated a free ophthalmology clinic in one wing of the castle, treating thousands of patients between 1920 and 1930.
