The Huniazilor Castle or Corvin Castle dominates with majesty the city of Hunedoara and is an important tourist attraction for all those passionate about history and the Middle Ages, being considered the largest medieval monument in south-eastern Europe
The Corvin Castle is an imposing construction with massive walls, up to 2 m thick, made of large blocks of dolomitic limestone and river stone. Its impressive size is highlighted by the Gothic architectural style, which exquisitely crowns the castle’s interior halls, towers and exterior facades.
The origins of the first construction date back to the 14th century, but traces of much earlier civilisations have been found on the site. During the reign of Iancu de Hunedoara, who decided to build a fortress on top of the old defensive fortification, construction began on what would become the grandiose Castle of the Hunyadians. Later, the castle became the residence of Matthias Corvinus, son of Iancu de Hunedoara and King of Hungary
