Description
The ruins of Topoľčany castle , some its part are dated to the half of the 13th century, are still towering above the village Podhradie. The castle was constantly extended with the new courtyards and its final pattren is exceptionally symmetrical. In the 15th century the castle belonged to the main centre of the Hussite troops in Ponitrie. The castle tower, a typical silhouette of the castle, is a retrospection of the romantic castle reconstruction in the 19th century.
