Teave

Kiired faktid: 40 meetri sügavune kaseemattide võrgustik lossi all ulatub üle 200 meetri maa-aluseid tunneleid. Üksainus ungari kaitsja kahurilask 1552. aasta piiramise ajal tappis korraga kaks Ottomani pašat.

Esiletõstmised: Maitse legendi ise lossi veinikeldris, kus saad proovida robustset punast veini, mis andis kaitsjatele väidetavalt üliinimlikku jõudu 1552. aasta piiramise ajal. Originaalsed Ottomani kahurikuulid, mis on endiselt kindlusemüüridesse sümbunud, muudavad keskaegse lahingu šokeerivalt kohaloluliseks.

Sisekujunduse nõuanded

Skip the wax museum inside and head straight for the underground tunnel system and panoramic tower instead.
Bring sturdy walking shoes because the cobblestone paths and uneven stairs inside the casemates get slippery.
The best photo spot is from the eastern bastion at golden hour, with the entire city of Eger spreading out below.
Plan at least 20 minutes for the short but steep hike up from the city center to the castle gates.
