Bratislava Castle, the landmark overlooking the capital, was built in the 9th century. It stands on the hill above Danube River. Eleven kings and eight queens were crowned in Bratislava in the past. No wonder that the castle is a popular part of excursions through the city.

The castle stands on an important crossroad of the ancient routes. First traces of the settlement on the hill stretch back to the stone and bronze age. The place had its strategic geographical importance in the period of The Great Moravian Empire.

First Hungarian king Stephen I (11th century) ruled over the empire from his seat inside the castle. It remained unconquered during the Tartar raids (1241-1242) and protected Hungary against the attacks from the west. Also, since Vienna is right around a corner, the castle provided a protection for this city too.
