Corvin castle 1 day tour from Oradea

We begin our trip early in the morning heading to Huneadoara town the place where the castle is located. The castle guide will give the explanations in Romanian and the tour guide will translate. The castle is a large and imposing structure with tall towers, bastions, an inner courtyard, diversely coloured roofs and myriad windows and balconies adorned with stone carvings. The tower "Neboisa", which remained unchanged from John Hunyadi's time, and the Capistrano Tower (named after the saint, Franciscan friar from the Battle of Belgrade in 1456 are some of the most significant parts of the construction. Other significant parts of the building are the Knights' Hall (a great reception hall), the Diet Hall, the torture chambers where various torture tools are exposed, a fountain dug by three Turkish prisoners who were promised freedom when job was done. It took them 15 years and 28 days to reach water but finally they were killed. Late in the evening we shall return in Oradea.
