Árpádvár, Medieval castle ruins in Dömös, Hungary

The castle remains stand at 483 meters altitude on a cone-shaped hill, featuring remnants of walls, carved stones, and foundations of ancient structures.

Archaeological discoveries from the 1960s uncovered artifacts dating from the 12th to 15th centuries, including arrowheads, spurs, and roof tiles within the castle grounds.

The site holds strong connections to the Árpád dynasty, with local records suggesting King Béla I experienced a fatal accident here in 1063.

Visitors can reach the ruins through a 4-kilometer hike from Dömös, following unmarked paths through the forest to the hilltop location.

The oval-shaped castle platform contains a partially artificial rock formation rising 3-4 meters, where the residential tower once stood.
