Ruins of Szanda Castle

Szanda Castle stands atop a 529-metre-high volcanic hill composed of andesitic tuff, offering one of the most scenic panoramas of the Cserhát region. Located near the village of Szanda, the castle ruins are not only a relic of Hungary’s medieval past but also a prominent geosite within the Novohrad–Nógrád UNESCO Global Geopark, where geological and cultural heritage intertwine.
