Hollókői Vár is a medieval stone fortification perched atop a rocky hill overlooking the UNESCO World Heritage village of Hollókő. This historic site, with parts preserved, reconstructed, and in ruins, offers a journey into the region's past and medieval life. Visitors explore its irregular layout, discovering a knight's hall, a castle chapel, and exhibitions including a panoptikum and a weapon display. From its walls, a vast panorama unfolds across the traditional village and the Cserhát hills. A unique feature is the rock-carved cistern in the outer courtyard, rumored to have concealed treasures of Máté Csák and the Turks.
