Jurisics Castle

Didn't go inside, just visited to the courtyard. However it's one of the main sites in town. Worth a visit probably. The courtyard has a small cafe with drinks and seating area.

Beautiful castle with lot of interesting things to see for all age groups. Probably the only place where you can still handle old guns. The castle is open on Mondays in peak season!

Beautiful castle, nice exhibits. Also loved the fact that there is an outdoor event place (mainly for theater, we saw a concert) in the inner courtyard.

If you climb up to the tower you can ring the bell.

Kószeg - beautiful little town in Hungary

Love this place!
I love museums anyways...
This one is a lot of reading and tabloids on the wall with history in a fairly small but old castle. There are some quirky bits, like the lookout tower (I have vertigo, so only the hubby went up there with the older kids), rung the tower bell. If you go, although it costs a bit extra, it is worth watching the 3D movie about Hungarian history. For tourists it gives a really good summary, for Hungarians it is a cool short film to remind one of the school taught facts and stories. The best time to visit is the beginning of August, when there is a historical fair in the whole of the city centre, called Ostromnapok. It lasts the whole weekend and you can time travel back into the Middle Ages - eat the food, listen to the music, play the medival games or witness the re-enacting of the Hungarian-Turkish fights of 1500s with lots of soldiers and even cannon shots, the castle being the centre of attention. You can also buy memorabilia in this Mediterranean feel gem of a place.

You can learn about history and have fun - medieval style clothing is available to try. Good fun with kids. Also the exhibition is interesting and you can have a nice walk around. Atmosphere is friendly and the castle hosts many cultural activities during the year. The most popular is the "Siege days" in August.

It is okay. 🙂 Nice place.

Lots of content, very nice historical summary about everything that happened in the past with special focus on the Hungarian Holy Crown rescue mission
