This town is well-known because of the ruins of guard castle. Firstly, in 13th century, it was wooden and intended to protect the narrow mountain pathes from the enemies. But in 1241 tatars had captured and ruined it. It was rebuilt and changed lots of owners. The fortress was totally destroyed in 1644. It has been being empty  since that time.

This place had been considered to be a shelter of different evil spirits. There are lots of legends about it. One of them says, that it was built by the mythological Dark Woman, which forced to add human blood and milk into the mortar to make the walls unmoved. She failed, as far as you know...
But old-timers still try to get this place round.

Today it's a great place to have a rest and to get some fresh impressions.
