Bratislava

Devín castle is a great day trip from Bratislava. To get here take bus #28 or #29 from Most SNP, or alternatively take the boat (summer season only). This photo was taken from the Austrian side of the Danube (which you can reach by bus #801 to Hainburg). There is a small stoney beach here, which is mostly in shadow during the day, so a great place to go when the weather is hot. #lovemytown #malekarpaty

Looking over from the ruins of Devin castle in Slovakia across to Austria on the other side of the Danube, the old border of he iron curtain. http://www.theroamingrenegades.com/2015/03/Devin-Castle-Ruins-Slovakia-Border.html
Owing to its strategic position, the cliff (altitude of 212 meters) at the confluence of the Danube and Morava rivers was an ideal place for a fort. Its owner could control the important trade route along the Danube as well as one branch of the Amber Road. That is why the site has been settled since the Neolithic and fortified since the Bronze and Iron Age. Later, both the Celts and the Romans built strong fortresses there. In the Roman ruins, the first Christian church located North of the Danube has been identified. The castle stands just inside Slovak territory on the frontier between Slovakia (previously part of Czechoslovakia) and Austria. The border runs from west to east along the Morava River and subsequently the Danube. Prior to 1989, the Iron Curtain between the Eastern Bloc and the West ran just in front of the castle. Although the castle was open to the public, the area surrounding it constituted a restricted military zone, and was heavily fortified with watchtowers and barbed wire. After the Velvet Revolution the area was demilitarised. #hiking

Very clean room, very helpful staff. Somewhat tricky to drive through the narrow streets. During working days, I think the parking will be an issue. Otherwise, excellent place and very quiet, too.
