The four-towered castle that can be seen from all over Bratislava, on a hill beside the Danube. The courtyard, the walls and the Baroque garden are free and open from 8:00 to 22:00: from above you see the river, the SNP Bridge with the UFO and, on the other side, the blocks of Petržalka. Inside is the History Museum of the Slovak National Museum and the Crown Tower, the oldest part, where the Hungarian coronation jewels were kept for more than two centuries. The museum is open Wednesday to Monday from 10:00 to 18:00; it is closed on Tuesdays. From the main square you climb in 15–20 minutes through the streets of the old town and the castle steps.
