After the retreat we visited a nearby castle. Here we are at the entrance. This is the Cerveny Kamen castle or Red Rock. This castle was originally built in the 13th century and like most castles changed hands many times throughout the years. A famous Slovak family, the Palffys owned it for several centuries. For all you hockey fans out there you know that name because of Ziggy Pallfy, pro hockey player from Slovakia who is a descendant of this family.

Or, you just know the name from having been to Bojnice! (What's hockey? ;-)
