Damásd Castle, Medieval castle ruins near Ipoly River, Hungary
The castle remains stand on a 150-meter hill at the northern end of Ipolydamásd village, overlooking the Ipoly Valley region.
The Ottoman forces captured the castle during a truce in 1641, leading to complaints from Palatine Eszterházy Miklós to the Pasha of Buda.
The castle site features information boards that detail the military history of this former royal hunting residence from the 14th century.
Visitors can reach the castle ruins through marked hiking trails, including the Blue Castle and Blue Cross paths in the Börzsöny region.
The castle served as both a Hungarian royal hunting lodge and later a strategic fortification with 50 cavalry and 100 infantry soldiers.
