Dominating the top of a steep hill overlooking Visegrád is the castle, which has long played a decisive role in Hungarian history. From the courtyard of the double castle system, which can still be visited today, you can enjoy a dazzling view of the meandering Danube, while the former royal palace in the lower castle offers exhibitions on the life of the medieval Hungarian royal court and the history of the Solomon Tower. Those who want to experience the excitement of jousting should time their visit to coincide with the Visegrad International Palace Games.
