The City Symbol

Built centuries ago and rebuilt in the 1950s on a hill some 80 metres above the Danube, the Castle gives you a chance to see a part of the city and Austria.

The Castle used to be the seat of Hungarian monarchs and the crown jewels were kept in 1 of the 4 towers - the Crown Tower, built in the 13th century.

The Castle now houses the Historical Museum, open daily, except Mondays, 9-17.
