    The fortress is interesting. But there's nobody there during opening hours. Had to call and wait for a long time. A lady came, walking really slow, didn't apologize. She is growing rabbits and hens inside the fortress and gets angry when I comment that it's a monument...Still worth visiting.

    A short "sightseeing"...historical Landmarks like this place should be treasured and well maintained because it played an important role in the country's history... Pity that it's like being "set aside"...pardon but this is just my opinion..no offense meant.. 😉

    (Translated by Google) I came on Friday at 5:30 pm and there was nobody. Maybe hire someone in charge who doesn't play the game. Wake up mayor! If it hurts a little in your area, do something for this city, because you're sitting on a gold mine! Dissatisfaction and carelessness! (Original) Am venit vineri la ora 17:30 și nu era nimeni. Poate angajați pe cineva responsabil care să nu își bată joc. Trezește-te primarule! Dacă te doare un pic de zona ta, fă ceva pentru cetatea aceasta, că stați pe o mina de aur! Nesimțire și nepăsare!

    Amazing place. Super cute. The entrance fee is a small one. There is the best host that can give you a warm welcome: a small dog that runs free in the fortress's garden. The entrance leads to the court of the fortress. Following the path, at the bottom of the fortress, there is a small garden with plants and, also, you can find some animals as geese, chickens, ducks. There is a medium tower, it can be climbed. The view from the top is breathtaking. It's quiet and peaceful. I strongly recommend this place for those days when you're seeking silence and tranquility because it's that kind of place where you can just sit on the grass and enjoy the moment.

    It's truly impressive how large the fortress is, it's too bad it's not preserved better. Unfortunately it was a public holiday when I visited and I could visit the interior as it was closed. The ticket is 3 Ron, as it was reitten with a market on a white paper on the door. I would like to see what's on the inside so if I get the chance I will visit again.

    (Translated by Google) The fortress, although in an advanced state of degradation, is worth a visit! Unfortunately, the restoration plans are just for paper. (Original) Cetatea, desi se afla intr-o stare avansata de degradare, merita vizitata! Din pacate, planurile de.restaurare sunt.doar.pe hartie.

    A nice surprise :) The entry fee is only 3 RON and the place is really nice and cared for. It is worth checking it out if you are in the area.

    One of my favourite places. You have to go inside the fortress. It costs only 3 ron to visit. A family lives there and takes care of everything in this place. They have a small garden with vegetables and fruits, also a bunny.

    (Translated by Google) If you have the courage to climb the bell, go up because the view is wonderful. (Original) Daca ai curajul sa te urci in clopotnita sa te urci pentru ca privelistea e minunata.

    (Translated by Google) We arrived at Slimnic fortress on a Sunday, around 2 pm There was no one to open the door, we could visit it inside. The court was unlocked, the children were being given up. I called a number. phone call found on the internet and the person told the SEC that he has baptism, that he can not go. However, I do not think it was such a big effort to send someone with the key, especially since I told him that we are 4 people willing to visit. We have beautiful sightseeing in our country! It is a pity that neither the local people nor the local authorities (mayors) want to support them and offer them for a visit! (Original) Am ajuns la cetatea Slimnic intr o duminica, in jur de ora 14. Nu era nimeni care sa ne deschida usa, sa o putem vizita si la interior. Curtea era descuiata, se dadeau pe derdelus copiii. Am sunat la un nr. de tel gasit pe internet iar persoana respectiva ne-a spus SEC ca are botez, ca nu poate pleca. Totusi, nu cred ca era asa un mare efort sa trimita pe cineva cu cheia, mai ales ca i am spus ca suntem 4 persoane dornice sa vizitam. Avem obiective turistice frumoase in tara noastra! Pacat ca nici localnicii si nici autoritatile locale (primarii) nu vor sa le intretina si sa le ofere spre vizitare!

    (Translated by Google) This castle was interesting. It was wonderful in its golden age and still contains its original beauty. It was possible to go up to the tower, but the stunt was not completely harmless. Interesting, I wrote. The ruins are interesting, they are cozy. The hen yard is not so. Like the bricked rabbit that the passengers gave him to drink and did not force himself to soak up the water. The original objects alternate interestingly with the plastic ornaments left over from socialism. He brought everything with the evil-looking orangutan (?) Planted in the swing. Don't miss out on this. I mean the castle. :) (Original) Érdekes volt ez a vár. Fénykorában csodás lehetett, nyomokban még tartalmazza eredeti szépségét. A toronyba fel lehetett menni, de nem teljesen veszélytelen a mutatvány. Érdekes, írtam. Érdekesek a romok, hangulatosak. A tyúkudvar annyira nem az. Ahogy a befalazott nyúl sem, aminek az utastársak adtak inni, és nem győzte magába szívni a vizet. Érdekesen váltakoznak az eredeti tárgyak a műanyag dísztárgyakkal, amik a szocializmusból maradtak itt. Mindent vitt a hintába ültetett, gonosz nézésű orángután (?). Ne hagyd ki, ha erre jársz. Mármint a várat. :)

    Very nice and quiet place, worht visiting even when it's rainy. The inside of the fortres is well taken care of, and the lady at the entrance very friendly. A ticket is only 3 RON. You can also climb the stairs in the tower which is really worht the effort as the view on the top is beautiful! Will definitely visit again in antorhe season :)

  • 3/5 Mirela S. 2 years ago on Google
    The fortress was closed even the program says that its open for visitors between 10 and 15. From outside looks like nobody cares about it.

  • 4/5 teo d. 2 years ago on Google
    The place is amazing, too bad is not promoted

  • 3/5 Franz H. 5 years ago on Google
    Comes on the way to Sighisoara, so then it is worth to stop. Took a steep shortcut through the bushes up the hill. Infrastructure a bit behind, makes it more authentic.

  • 4/5 Mihaela R. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful location which is being inhabitated since 2012. The man who livea here is really friendly. I was surprised about the animals (one dog and some ducks) and about the small garden he has inside the fortress. Entrance fee is 3 RON.

  • 2/5 Diana S. 1 year ago on Google
    The fortress is as our ancestors left it. It can use some investement because there is potential, but for now, if you don't have plans in the area, I wouldn't recommend visiting it yet

  • 5/5 Vergilia C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to relax and enjoy the ancient atmosphere! We were on 2 th day of the Easter. It was peaceful, quiet and pleasant.

  • 3/5 Shane H. 1 year ago on Google
    Free entry to wall around the outside, 3lei to go inside. We didn't go inside, even outside being free was a difficult choice

    The castle on the hill above the village. Although in ruins, it represents an impressive sight. The bell tower of the church is still functioning and daily echoed village.

    Inside of the ruins look pretty good. Leave your car at the main road and walk there. Entrance fee is 3 ron.

  • 5/5 madalina n. 6 years ago on Google
    It's quite a hidden place with a lot of transylvanian charm. The citadel is still inhabited by one family who also takes care of it. The ticket is very cheap. It's a must see location.

    (Translated by Google) I didn't manage to visit the fortress (it was closed, although officially there had to be someone there), but from the outside it's gorgeous. A picturesque place. Too bad it's not restored (Original) Nu am reușit sa vizitam cetatea, (era inchisa, deși oficial trebuia sa fie cineva acolo), dar de la exterior este superba. Un loc pitoresc. Păcat ca nu este restaurat

    Quiet, green and well preserved. The view and the surroundings deserve a stop for a couple of hours visit.

  • 5/5 TheEvdriver 5 years ago on Google
    On the route to Medias we suddenly sighted an imposing fortress ruin on a mountain in the evening sun: the Stolzenburg in Slimnic. The road there is more like a bad footpath due to roadworks, I think it will be better in the future. As we arrive at the castle, we can see that you can visit it. Its even inhabited. The entrance fee is 3 lei per person (5 lei = 1 euro). No parking, you just park on the road. Maybe its a good idea to leave the car down in the village. We are happy to have seen this great and impressive 14th century ruin and take lots of pictures. Inside once stood an unfinished church ruin and you can climb the high tower with adventurous ladders.

    (Translated by Google) It would be beautiful ... if they weren't neglected, like so much of everything here with us ... it's still worth seeing ... as long as the walls stand ... (Original) Gyönyörű... lenne... ha nem hanyagolnák el, úgy, mint annyi mindent itt nálunk... még így is érdemes megnézni... ameddig állnak a falak...

    (Translated by Google) The location takes you back to the past, it has a medieval touch when you enter there. Too bad nothing has been invested and it is not promoted properly. (Original) Locatia te intoarce in trecut, are o tenta medievala cand intri acolo. Pacat ca nu s-a investit nimic si nu este promovata corespunzator.

    Such a lovely surprise! The keepers of the place made a home for themselves inside the walls, creating a fairytail feeling all around. We were free to roam the entire perimiter. We really had a fantastic experience! Visiting hours 10-19, tickets 3lei/person.

    (Translated by Google) Slimnic Fortress is one of the most beautiful unpopulated places in Romania. I found her by chance on the road between Blaj and Sibiu, but I was pleasantly impressed as soon as I entered her yard. The fact that it is the place is very clean and well arranged by the family that lives there, makes you think that you are at the ruins of a fortress in Great Britain, not in Romania. (Original) Cetatea Slimnic e unul dintre cele mai frumoase locuri nepopluare din Romania. Am gasit-o intamplator pe drumul dintre Blaj si Sibiu, dar am ramas placut impresionati de indata ce am intrat in curtea ei. Faptul ca este locul este foarte curat si bine amenajat de catre familia care locuieste acolo, te faca sa crezi ca esti la ruinele unei cetati din Marea Britanie, nicidecum din Romania.
