Footsteps of the wonder rabbis - The Szirmay-Waldbott Castle

The Szirmay-Waldbott Castle

Tolcsva

The Baroque-style, 18th-century building was extended in Classicist and Eclectic style during the 19th century. For decades, the castle used to be a school. Today, the building serves different cultural purposes as the home of the Event Center of Heritage Tourism and Culture.

The castle is classified as a national monument. The wood-panelled, Neo-Renaissance-style great parlor and library, together with the parquet board of the women's parlor remained in their original form.

Since the end of 2015, visitors can enter the interior space to learn about the history of the castle and other Tolcsva buildings. They also have an opportunity to glance into the life and childhood of the nobility and the world of aristocratic weddings.

Interactive historical games add to the lively experience.
