Stop #14
Corvin Castle is one of the largest castles in Europe, and definitely Randy’s favorite visit of the trip. The castle was was laid out in 1446.
The castle is Renaissance-Gothic style. The castle also has a double wall for fortification and has both rectangular and circular towers, typical for Transylvanian architecture. Some of the towers were used as prisons.
We visited the Knight’s Hall, the Diet Hall and the circular stairway.
While we were in Budapest, we came across a painting of the Castle, which I’ve posted below with the information about the painting.
