Lednica Castle, Gothic castle ruins in Púchov District, Slovakia.
The fortress stands atop a limestone rock formation in the Biele Karpaty Mountains, featuring remnants of Gothic architecture and defensive walls.
Built in the late 13th century as a border protection fortress for the Kingdom of Hungary, the castle experienced multiple ownership changes before its destruction.
The castle maintains its status as a Cultural Heritage Monument of Slovakia, representing medieval military architecture and regional defensive structures.
Visitors reach the castle through a marked footpath that starts from Lednica village and continues past the church to the castle entrance.
The castle entrance features a 10-meter-long tunnel carved directly into the rock, leading to a small courtyard with the main residential building.
