Gyula Castle, Medieval brick castle and museum in Gyula, Hungary.
The fortress consists of a central brick structure with a trapezoidal outer wall and features a cannon tower at its southwestern corner.
Built in the 15th century by János Maróti, the castle underwent a 62-day siege in 1566 before falling into Turkish control.
The castle museum contains 24 exhibition rooms showcasing medieval life, including a knights' hall, chapel, torture chambers, and residential quarters.
Visitors can climb the observation tower to view the city of Gyula and, during clear weather, see the Bihar Mountains of Romania.
This structure stands as the only intact flatland brick castle remaining in Central and Eastern Europe.
