Visegrád Royal Palace

Famed as one of the finest palaces in Europe, Visegrád Royal Palace is a 13th-century castle situated atop a hill overlooking the famous Danube River. The place now has the ruins of the former summer palace of King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary and displays the Gothic and Renaissance architecture of ancient times.

The terraced building complex of the palace consists of three main parts: the northern Matthias Palace, the Royal Chapel, and the Palace of Beatrix. It also offers great views of the river and the city from its hilltop location and is a great destination to enjoy a pleasant time in Hungary.
