Castle Museum in Filakovo in Slovakia

Well worth the visit Interesting part restored castle. Enjoyed the museum area even though it would have helped to have an English translation for the printed notes alongside the displays.

Beautiful panoramas For fee 4-€, we got a lot of information about castle history. That was worthy. But the best part of the visit were the views. You could see the whole country around. .

Between 2006 - 2007 there was a reconstruction of the interior of the Bebek Bastion and it´s adaptation into the museum. In April 2007 the Castle Museum in Fiľakovo was established. In August 2008 a constant exposition called The Centuries of Fiľakovo castle was opened in the museum. Visitors can learn about the history of the town and the castle from the first written reference to 1682 when the castle was destroyed. There are exhibited valuable medieval finds and finds from the Slovak National Museum, the original castle keys and things from the Turkish occupation. There are valuable finds from the most important archeological localities.
