Rezi Castle, Medieval castle ruin in Rezi, Hungary.
The stone fortification stands at an elevation of 418 meters on a hilltop north of Lake Balaton in Western Transdanubia region.
Built after the Mongol invasion in the 13th century, the castle first appeared in documents as Castrum Rezy in 1387 under ownership of the Lackfi family.
The castle holds significance in Hungarian military architecture as it successfully defended against Turkish forces while protecting surrounding settlement populations.
Visitors can reach the castle ruins through a five-kilometer hiking trail that winds through the mountainous landscape of Keszthely Mountain.
The fortress walls, reaching nine meters in height during the 16th century, incorporated advanced defensive features against artillery attacks of that period.
