About

Quick facts: The dungeons house torture instruments dating back over 600 years and reveal the harshness of medieval justice. The walls tell real stories of prisoners and dark secrets that challenge the vampire legend.

Highlights: The dungeons offer a unique visual experience by displaying original torture devices and reconstructions that make visitors feel inside a medieval castle. The gloomy atmosphere is intensified with dim lighting and sound effects simulating echoes of past screams.

Insider tips

  • Wear comfortable shoes to walk through narrow corridors and stairs.
  • Don't miss the main cell that still has prisoners' original engravings.
  • Avoid peak hours between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. for a more intimate experience.
  • The room with dim lighting is best for atmospheric photos.
