Devin Castle
Perched high above the confluence of the Danube and Morava Rivers, Devín Castle is one of Slovakia’s most spectacular historical landmarks. For centuries, this strategic fortress guarded important trade routes and witnessed the rise and fall of empires – from the Great Moravian Empire to the Napoleonic wars.
From the castle ruins, enjoy breathtaking panoramic views where two rivers meet and form the natural border between Slovakia and Austria.
Just below the castle stands the powerful Gate of Freedom memorial, honoring those who tried to escape communist Czechoslovakia during the Iron Curtain era. Between 1948 and 1989, this peaceful landscape was once a heavily guarded border dividing East and West.
Today, Devín is a symbol of history, resilience, and freedom – a must-see destination just minutes from Bratislava.
