This castle is one of my favorites! Especially at night when it lights up the Bratislava sky with its vibrant white color!

Artyom Fedosov

Picturesque view of the old town . Don't miss this place if you're in Bratislava.

Amaury J

Visit it at night and during the day, as it's beautiful during both times. You have to go while in Bratislava; it's the icon of the city . The best place to see it is from the tower in Old Town Hall .

Cenker Köse

Visit here on sunset to take beautiful pictures of Bratislava and take a shot of castle in the evening. There is a nice green path, where you feel the nature, climbing to castle in just 5 minutes.

Beautiful views of the city , you can roam the grounds without paying entrance fee also, check out the baroque garden !

The castle site was once a frontier post of the Roman Empire. Now contains the impressive Historical museum .

Go to the ticket counter to the right of the main castle doors before heading in, if you want to see the exhibits . That way, you won't have to come out again.
