A wonderful place with many tourist attractions the most important of them is the medieval castle that is kept in an exceptional state. The whole city is a visual pleasure and a wonderful place of recreation. In addition, in the city there are thermal baths a special place for a few moments of relaxation.

Walking around in a castle like this gives you a wonderful glimpse into the past. You'll spend 1 or 2 hours here if you're casually strolling through, with many sights worth seeing. Climbing the main tower is a must for the view. For those with (small) kids, if they're curious they'll enjoy seeing what this place has to offer, but don't expect a lot of interaction to hold their attention span.

Awesome castle from middle ages till the end of 19th century. Wonderful view from the tower. We were impressed with old hand-written manuscripts in leather cover. Don't miss the old well which is 23 meters deep.

Absolutely breathtaking. Give yourself more time for this castle as they have multiple parts of the castle open for exploring. One of the top 5 castles I have visited, period.

Wonderful Castle! And the view from the very top is amazing 🤩 The area is also a nice Town to have a walk around. Tickets are 6,50 not €5 as stated in their website.
