Veľký Kamenec Castle, Medieval castle ruins on a hill in Veľký Kamenec, Slovakia.
The castle complex encompasses three distinct sections: the Upper Castle, Lower Castle, and Forecastle, with remaining walls extending across the hilltop.
Built after the Tartar invasion in the 13th century, the castle served as a strategic fortification until its destruction by imperial order in 1673.
The castle witnessed the signing of a peace treaty between Ján Jiskra and Ján Hunyady in 1458 following its capture by the royal forces.
The castle ruins remain open throughout the year, with clear pathways leading from the village center to the hilltop location.
The pentagonal cannon tower features three levels of embrasures and stands seven meters tall, demonstrating medieval military architecture.
