Vinné Castle

The castle is situated northwest of the east-Slovakian village of Vinné.

This fortified residence of the nobility from Michalovce dates to the second half of the 13th century and like other castles in region, it served as sentry castle on the Magna Via, old trade road leading from the region of Potisie to Poland.

The castle was pulled down during the Rebellion of Estates at the beginning of the 18th century. Ruins of the Vinné Castle offer a nice view of the lowland Východoslovenská nížina.

The castle is currently undergoing essential reconstruction thanks to the Civic Association 'Obcianske združenie Zemplínsko-užská hradná cesta' and its generous donors.
