Devin Castle is a castle perched on a cliff at 212 metres above the ground near the confluence of Danube and Morava Rivers at Devín near Bratislava (10 kms). The castle has been famous for its strategic location since its owner could control the trade route along the Danube and Amber Road. Archaeological research suggests that the castle area was inhabited since the 5th century BC. The current castle structure however dates back to the medieval times. The castle offers stunning views of the Danube and Morava Rivers.
