Kapušany castle Hill
Kapušany castle Hill, Medieval castle ruin in Kapušany, Slovakia
The castle ruins stand on a strategic hilltop with rectangular foundations measuring 35 by 20 meters, featuring remaining two-floor residential sections and a square west tower.
Built around 1300 as Maglovec fortress, the castle protected trade routes from Prešov to Bardejov and Poland until its destruction during an uprising in 1709.
The fortification represents medieval Slovak defensive architecture, with elements showing the transition from basic fortifications to advanced military structures over centuries.
Visitors reach the castle ruins through marked trails starting from Kapušany village, with the site offering unrestricted access throughout the year.
The castle walls contain architectural elements from multiple construction periods, including a 16th-century outer bailey with economic buildings supporting castellan operations.
