A historic site with a beautiful view. It can be reached via a longer gravel forest road with a steep incline — hiking shoes are highly recommended! Much of the castle is under renovation, and many areas are closed. With the basic ticket, you can mostly explore the castle walls and visit one exhibition, where nearly all the signs are in Slovak — English translations are only available via QR codes. When we visited, the exhibition also included a retro display of strollers and children's toys, which was quite interesting.

Very nice place but should better manager. Any way Worth to visit, you can walk around it in max 2 hours. The main Tower is the Best. Nice to see the park and city too.

Trenčín Castle is stunning on the outside, but the interior and exhibitions are a bit underwhelming. When we visited, it was partly under reconstruction so there were some areas that we could not access. Nevertheless, it is a beautiful castle with amazing views.

A lovely castle to visit. You can spend up to a few hours there. The entrance fee is very fair. Amazing views open up from various vantage points of the castle. Highly recommended for a visit!

Nice big castle, worth the visit. Doable with kids, we went up with a 3 and 6 year old, but it's quite steep. We did around 5 km, visited almost every corner.

Great place with lot's of history. If you don't mind a steep climb up too the castle . In the village square there are plenty of bar restaurants at reasonable prices.

It is more a fortress then a castle. Still if you climb in the tower is a very nice feeling of freedom. Also down the center of the town is beautiful.

Beautiful building. Very historical, apparently one of the prettiest in Slovakia. It's an old Synagogue, no longer in use. Looks like it's currently undergoing renovations to be an art center. The architecture is very different from most synagogues.

The Synagogue was closed when I visited. I read that it's only opened at restrictive times. From the outside,it looked badly in need of some TLC. I also looked through one of the windows and it looked derelict.

I believe the architect must have had a lot of fun designing this building. It is so full of small details, arched windows that can be seen through arched spaces seen through actual arched entrances etc. The building is visibly in disrepair. The Jewish community is very small and demographically on a steep decline.

Still closed 5.5.2023 :(

Nice to see historic building but sad to find out it is close and changed to be a gallery

Unfortunately I didn't get to look inside, but the architecture is beautiful.

Reminds me a church of st. Sava

The Mestska veza, also called the City Gate is a six-storey Gothic style gate of the old fortifications of the town gate and built in the 15th century. It was a Sunday when I came to Trencin and the tower was closed, so I didn't get a chance to climb it. It looks okay. The current structure makes clear the original function as the gate of a fortified wall. There’s a clock now at the top of the tower, but other than that, there's not much to see.

A lovely place, with an amazing view. You can go to the top of the tower which is amazing, especially for a few pennies so an amazing view

Nice landmark of main square.

Super

Magic point

Supeeer...

(Translated by Google) The Trenčín City Tower is a significant historical monument built in the early 15th century as part of the city fortifications. It originally served as the Lower Gate, which protected the entrance to the city. It was gradually rebuilt and raised to six floors, thus acquiring its current characteristic appearance. The tower is approximately 32 meters high and offers a magnificent view of the city center, Trenčín Castle and the surrounding countryside. It is currently open to the public during the summer season and houses an art exhibition space inside. A visit to the tower is a great way to start a tour of historic Trenčín. (Original) Mestská veža v Trenčíne je významná historická pamiatka postavená začiatkom 15. storočia ako súčasť mestského opevnenia. Pôvodne slúžila ako Dolná brána, ktorá chránila vstup do mesta. Postupne bola prestavaná a zvýšená až na šesť poschodí, čím získala svoj dnešný charakteristický vzhľad. Veža má výšku približne 32 metrov a ponúka nádherný výhľad na centrum mesta, Trenčiansky hrad aj okolitú krajinu. V súčasnosti je prístupná verejnosti počas letnej sezóny a vo vnútri sa nachádza výstavný priestor s umením. Návšteva veže je skvelým spôsobom, ako začať prehliadku historického Trenčína.

This is must see spot in town! Executioner house!

Very tiny. 5 minutes if you are slow. Free with a castle ticket.

Engaging staff made our visit really special! Thanks

Super!

(Translated by Google) A beautiful house in an alley below the castle, if you use the tickets from the castle, you can also look inside... You will find not only the executioner's tools, but also an exhibition of how the townspeople lived in the 18th century, the magistrate's table from that time and many other interesting things 😍 there is a beautiful view from the house., (Original) Krásný dům v uličce pod hradem, když využijete vstupenky z hradu, můžete se podívat i dovnitř... Najdete tam nejen katovy nástroje,ale i výstavu,jak v 18.stol.zili měšťané, rychtářův stůl z té doby a spoustu dalších zajímavostí 😍z domu je krásný výhled.,

(Translated by Google) The Executioner's House is a Renaissance building from the early 17th century, located under the Trenčín Castle on Matúšová Street. In the past, it served as the residence of the city executioner, who lived here and prepared for the execution of sentences. In the basement there was a prison, where convicts were held before execution. In the 19th century, the house was used by the city police and later became a historical monument. Today it belongs to the Trenčín Museum and houses an exhibition on medieval justice, torture instruments and the history of punishment. (Original) Katov dom je renesančná budova z počiatku 17. storočia, nachádzajúca sa pod Trenčianskym hradom na Matúšovej ulici. V minulosti slúžil ako obydlie mestského kata, ktorý tu žil a pripravoval sa na výkon trestov. V suteréne sa nachádzala väznica, kde boli zadržiavaní odsúdenci pred popravou. V 19. storočí dom využíval mestský dráb a neskôr sa stal historickou pamiatkou. Dnes patrí Trenčianskemu múzeu a nachádza sa v ňom expozícia o stredovekej spravodlivosti, mučiacich nástrojoch a histórii trestov.

(Translated by Google) Time-saving, smaller exhibition, suitable for diversifying a visit to Trenčín. Very nice and friendly lady in the shop. (Original) Časovo nenáročná, menšia expozícia, vhodná ma spestrenie návštevy Trenčína. Veľmi milá a prívetivá slečna v pokadni.

Beautiful heart of the town with lots of restaurants and coffee places. Relaxed vibe and friendly atmosphere!

A strange and adrenaline-filled combination of two events at the pillar

Very nice place, excellent views, restaurant, bar, clothing stores, from my visit to Trencin Slovakia I recommend it.

(Translated by Google) The plague pit is a baroque monument built in 1712, due to the plague epidemic in the Monarchy. Similar monuments were built in all the countries of the former Habsburg Monarchy. (Original) Kužni pil barokni je spomenik izgrađen 1712. godine, zbog epidemije kuge u Monarhiji. Slični spomenici su se gradili po svim zemljama nekadašnje Habsburške monarhije.

(Translated by Google) The Plague Column of the Holy Trinity on the Peace Square in Trenčín was built in 1712 as a monument to the plague epidemic of 1710. The initiator of the construction was Count Mikuláš Ilešházy, the governor of Trenčín-Liptov. The column was made in the Baroque style by Viennese stonemasons and decorated with the coat of arms of the Ilešházy family and Latin inscriptions. In 1715, another plague epidemic struck the city. The column was restored in 1797 by the Piarist Vavrinec Králik. Today it is one of the important cultural monuments of Trenčín. (Original) Morový stĺp Najsvätejšej Trojice na Mierovom námestí v Trenčíne bol postavený v roku 1712 ako pamiatka na morovú epidémiu z roku 1710. Iniciátorom výstavby bol gróf Mikuláš Ilešházy, trenčiansko-liptovský župan. Stĺp bol zhotovený v barokovom štýle viedenskými kamenármi a zdobený erbom rodu Ilešházy a latinskými nápismi. V roku 1715 postihla mesto ďalšia morová epidémia. Stĺp bol obnovený v roku 1797 piaristom Vavrincem Králikom. Dnes patrí medzi významné kultúrne pamiatky Trenčína.

(Translated by Google) In the center of the square is the tall 18th-century column dedicated to the victims of the plague. In the background is Trencin Castle, and surrounding restaurants and shops line cobblestone streets with a beautiful ambiance. (Original) En el centro de la plaza está la alta columna del siglo XVIII dedicado a las víctimas de la peste. En el fondo el castillo de trencin y alrededor restaurantes tiendas con calles adoquinadas y un ambiente hermoso para visitar.

(Translated by Google) I recommend the squeaky t-shirt from Little Elephant. Trenčín is a pleasant, photogenic city with a family square full of cafes and smaller businesses 🥰 (Original) Piskacie tričko od malý sloník igi odporúča. Trenčín je príjemné, fotogenické mesto s rodinným námestím plným kaviarní a menších podnikov 🥰

Amazing shopping centrum with lot of variety. Also food stations and many coffes shops. Petfriendly (any behave dog is welcome)

Good selection of shops in here.

Biggest mall in Trancin, but not close to the size of those in Bratislava. Some shops are also around, but quite far to carry the things. So movement by car still required. Big parking - definitely free slot can be found here. And it is free of charge almost everywhere. Some obvious minuses: traffic jam each business day in afternoon hours, police monitor specific part of parking quite frequently (there is not too obvious sign, which gives possibility to collect some fines), toilets only in one part of the building.

Boring as heck. I can hardly ever buy anything. The selection of brands is very poor here. Furthemore, the sales assistants avoid any eye contact and are oftentimes unwilling to help. I have had a few really really bizarre encounters; once the sales person suddenly squatted down behind her little counter to become invisible and to avoid any interaction with me and my partner and then she emerged and proceeded to play with her cell phone, still completely ignoring us and pretending we didn't exist. We were standing almost next to her but she just wouldn't acknowledge us. Elsewhere, there was a young lady whom I had to chase down throughout the entire store, and once I managed to catch her I found her filing her nails between the aisles. She gave me the deer in the headlights look and almost fainted out in shock that a customer wanted something from her. I could mention a few other ludicrous stories but suit yourselves and find out for yourselves.

I like here to go with my wife. We always find here beautiful clothes and shoes. And after couple of hours of shopping, you can enjoy a coffee ☕ time in the nearest restaurant or take some quick bites. The children can enjoy a playground in the shopping mall.

Very nice environment and shopping experience. Don't forget to check the restaurant directly towards escalators. Their coffee cooked on sand, with cardamon and excellent tomyum soup need to be tasted!

The biggest shopping centre in the region comprising of mainly European high street brands, complete with a centrally located food court. Convenient for finding clothing items under one roof, but a rather average experience overall. Parking is more complicated than it needs to be.

The most famous ossuary in Trencin. Interesting place to visit.

Entrance is for free if you bought guided tour in Trencin castle. Basement look like dungeon.

💀☠️

(Translated by Google) An interesting monument. One would not expect that there is also a small underground. Definitely worth a visit. Entrance fee €3 (Original) Zaujímavá pamiatka. Človek by nečakal že sa tam ešte nachádza aj malé podzemie. Určite sa oplatí navštíviť. Vstupné 3€

(Translated by Google) The crypt was built next to the parish church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary in the 15th century for the purpose of storing remains from older graves from the nearby cemetery. In the 16th century, during a fire that engulfed the city, the church and the castle itself, it burned down and the building continued to be used as an armory. It played an important role especially during the Turkish invasions. It is currently being renovated and houses a collection of sacred art - several sculptures from the 16th -18th centuries. Parking is possible in the city center, for example on Palackého Street or free of charge in marked places in Brezina. As part of the castle tour - the Great Circuit for 12 euros per person, you have entry to the crypt, the executioner's house, museums in Beckov, Čachtice, Nové mesto nad Váhom for up to 10 days included in the price. (Original) Karner vznikol vedľa farského kostola Narodenia panny Márie v 15. storočí za účelom ukladania telesných pozostatkov zo starších hrobov z neďalekého cintorína. V 16. storočí pri požiari, ktorý zachvátil mesto, kostol aj samotný hrad, vyhorel a stavba sa ďalej využívala ako zbrojnica. Významnú úlohu zohrala najmä v období tureckých vpádov. Aktuálne je zrekonštruovaná a nachádza sa tu zbierka sakrálnych umenia - niekoľko plastík zo 16. -18. storočia. Parkovanie je možné v centre mesta napr. na Palackého ulici alebo bezplatne na vyznačených miestach na Brezine. V rámci prehliadky hradu - Veľkého okruhu za 12 eur na osobu máte vstup do karneru, katovho domu, múzea v Beckove, Čachticiach, Novom meste nad Váhom do 10 dní v cene.

(Translated by Google) At the very end of our trip, we stopped at the St. Michael's Carcase – and although it is an inconspicuous building next to the church, it has an inimitable depth and a special peace. The poster by the door invited you to the ossuary, which naturally set a certain type of expectation. Downstairs, you can feel the strong atmosphere of a place where the dead have been laid out for centuries, but when you think of the word "ossuary" you usually imagine a large number of bones arranged in shelves or vaults. In this case, however, all that awaits the visitor is a graphic on the back wall and a few skulls placed below it. From this point of view, it was a bit of a disappointment compared to what the poster at the entrance suggested. If this expectation had not been created in advance, the overall impression would have been very positive. The premises are quiet, the darkness has a dignified effect and here you can stop not only your body but also your thoughts for a moment. On the other hand, it is questionable whether I would have even entered here without the sign about the "ossuary". In any case, it is a place worth visiting - especially if you are attracted by quiet and historically strong corners outside the main tourist traffic. Just enter with an open mind, not with the idea of ​​Sedlec or Kutná Hora. Note: If you have already paid for the castle tour, they will accept your ticket here as well. (Original) Na samom konci nášho výletu sme sa ešte zastavili pri Karneri sv. Michala – a hoci ide o nenápadnú stavbu vedľa kostola, má v sebe neopakovateľnú hĺbku a zvláštny pokoj. Plagát pri dverách pozýval do kostnice, čo prirodzene nastavilo určitý typ očakávania. Dole je síce cítiť silná atmosféra miesta, kde sa po stáročia ukladali mŕtvi, no človek si pod slovom „kostnica“ zvyčajne predstaví väčšie množstvo kostí, usporiadaných v policiach alebo klenbách. V tomto prípade však na návštevníka čaká len grafika na zadnej stene a niekoľko lebiek umiestnených pod ňou. Z tohto pohľadu to bolo trochu sklamanie oproti tomu, čo naznačoval plagát pri vstupe. Ak by to očakávanie nebolo vytvorené vopred, bol by celkový dojem veľmi pozitívny. Priestory sú tiché, prítmie pôsobí dôstojne a človek tu môže na chvíľu zastaviť nielen telo, ale aj myšlienky. Na druhej strane je otázne, či by som sem bez toho nápisu o „kostnici“ vôbec vošiel. V každom prípade ide o miesto, ktoré sa oplatí navštíviť – najmä ak vás lákajú pokojné a historicky silné zákutia mimo hlavného turistického ruchu. Len vstupujte s otvorenou mysľou, nie s predstavou Sedleci alebo Kutnej Hory. Poznámka: Ak už máte zaplatenú prehliadku hradu, vstupenku vám akceptujú aj tu.

(Translated by Google) Very nice place, pleasant guide, good explanation (Original) Veľmi pekné miesto , prijemny sprievodca , dobrý výklad

It is visible from the restaurant of the Hotel Elizabeth. Roman inscription: Victoriae Augustorum exercitus, qui Laugaricione sedit, mil(ites) l(egiones) II DCCCLV. (Maximi)anus leg(atus leg)ionis II Ad(iutricis) cur(avit) f(aciendum) (Done by 855 Legionaries of the Augustus victorious army, who are stationed in Laugaricio. Done under supervision of Maximus legatus of II legion.)

(Translated by Google) Laugaricio was one of the northernmost locations where Roman troops raided against the Germanic tribes. The inscription from the year 179 is the most important Roman monument in Central Europe preserved in its place since its creation. The inscription "For the victory of the emperors and the army that was based in Laugaricium, in the number of 855 soldiers of the II. Legion, was made by M. V. Maximianus, legate of the II. Auxiliary Legion" is not only proof of the presence of the Romans in this location, but also of their victory. It was created in the last year of the war. Carved is in the castle gate in Trenčín, it can be seen from the restaurant and the terrace of the Elisabeth Hotel (Original) Laugaricio bolo jedno z najsevernejších lokalít, kam siahali výpady rímskych vojsk proti germánskym kmeňom. Nápis z roku 179 je najvýznamnejšou rímskou pamiatkou v strednej Európe zachovanou na svojom mieste od svojho vzniku. Nápis "Víťazstvu cisárov a vojska, ktoré sídlilo v Laugariciu, v počte 855 vojakov II. Légie dal zhotoviť M. V. Maximianus, legát II. Pomocnej légie“  je nielen dôkazom prítomnosti Rimanov v tejto lokalite ale aj ich víťazstva. Vznikol v posledný rok vojny. Vytesaný je do hradného brala v Trenčíne, vidieť ho možno z reštaurácie a terasy hotela Elisabeth. Vstup je voľný

(Translated by Google) Inside the hotel, but at the reception they are willing to find you. (Original) Uvnitř hotelu, ale na recepci ochotně ponihou najít.

(Translated by Google) The Roman inscription behind the hotel is proof that the Roman legion wintered here in 179 and called the place Laugaricio. It is written there about the victory over the Germans during the Markoman wars. The inscription was rediscovered in 1852 by Czech Mr. Starek, who worked here in those years, 50 years before the construction of the hotel. Access: since it is located behind the hotel, you can only get to it through the hotel reception and the elevator to the first floor, where they will gladly let you in. BUT BEWARE, NOT WITH THE DOG!!! (Original) Rímsky napis za hotelom je dôkazom že tu zimovala rímska légia v roku 179 a nazvala miesto Laugaricio. Píše sa tam o výťazstve nad Germanmi počas Markomanskych bojov.(za vlády Markus Aurélia prebiehali boje s kmeňmi Markomanov a Kvádov v rokoch 165-180n.l.) Napis znovu objavil v roku 1852 Čech pán Stárek ktorý tu v tých rokoch pôsobil,50 rokov pred stavbou hotela. Prístup: keď že je umiestnený za hotelom dostanete sa k nemu len cez recepciu hotela a výťahom na prvé poschodie kde vás ochotne pustia.ALE POZOR, NIE SO PSOM !!!

(Translated by Google) The inscription can also be seen by tourists. The hotel allows free access to anyone who is interested, great. (Original) Nápis je možné vidieť aj turistom. Hotel umožňuje voľný prístup každému, kto má záujem, super.

(Translated by Google) It is located in the hotel. The receptionist will gladly show you the elevators. Go to the first floor and go through the alley on the left. The inscription is located behind the glass. It dates back to the Roman period and mentions the settlement of Laugaricio - one of the northernmost places where the Roman troops reached during raids against the Germans. (Original) Nachádza sa v hoteli. Pani recepčná Vám ochotne ukáže výťahy. Vyvezite sa na prvé poschodie a prejdete uličkou vľavo. Nápis sa nachádza za sklom. Pochádza rímskeho obdobia a spomína osadu Laugaricio - jedno z najsevernejších miest, kam sa rímske vojská dostali vo výpadoch proti Germánom.

(Translated by Google) Our very last visited church with the grand name of Notre Dame in Trenčín stood opposite the parking lot. Since the door was open, we couldn't miss the opportunity to look inside. We were pleasantly surprised by the beautiful interior and decoration of the church. (Original) Náš úplně poslední navštívený kostel honosného názvu Notre Dame v Trenčíně stál naproti parkovišti. Jelikož byly otevřené dveře nemohli jsme si nechat ujít možnost nahlédnout dovnitř. Krásný interiér a výzdoba kostela nás mile překvapil.

(Translated by Google) A church from 1909 built in the neo-Romanesque historicizing style. Until 1918, he belonged to the Congregation of Sisters of St. Vincent de Paul ("Vincents"), which were focused on education and health care. After them, the Congregation of the Poor School Sisters of Notre Dame took over the church. Until 1929, the church was without a tower, which was added in 1928-1929. Since this period, nothing significant has been built in this part of the street. 3 bells were installed on the tower, which are still there today. The tower is not accessible to the public. The church is not big, but it is cozy and has had a very good effect on me since childhood. It is connected by a corridor with today's high school next door (Original) Kostol z roku 1909 postavený v neorománskom historizujúcom slohu. Do roku 1918 patril Kongregácií sestier sv. Vincenta de Paul ("Vincentky"), ktoré boli zamerané na vzdelávanie a zdravotnú starostlivosť. Po nich kostol prevzala Kongregácia chudobných školských sestier de Notre Dame. Až do roku 1929 bol kostol bez veže, ktorú dostavali v rokoch 1928-1929. Od tohto obdobia sa nič významné v tejto časti ulice nepostavilo. Na vežu boli osadené 3 zvony, ktoré sú tam dodnes. Veža verejnosti prístupná nie je. Kostol nie je veľký, ale je útulný a na mňa od detstva pôsobí veľmi dobre. Prepojený je chodbou s dnešnou strednou školou vedľa
