Fort Nograd - Nógrád Vára - aerial - 4K

The fort of Nógrád is the eponymous fort of parish Nógrád lurking in the innermost part of Börzsöny mountains semi-circumferenced by the rive Ipoly, which crowns the 60 meters outstanding, large territorial plateau. Fort walls made by timbers, of paneled structure according to the fort building methods of 11th century, later filled with ground meant the power of defence then. This way the fort of the Nógrád fort district could have been built as well. The estate owned for centuries by the royal crown was awarded by Ladislaus IV. the Cuman (from the House of Árpád) to the diocese of Vác. In one corner of the plateau the inner castle was set up with a deep moat the buildings of which were erected by Miklós Báthory, bishop of Vác which can be seen in quite maimed remnants at present. During this period that vast, three-storied keep reached completion the stud of which makes the Nógrád fort ruins characterictic from afar. In 1544 its garrison ran away from the approaching Turks, it could be recaptured only in round 50 years’ time. The second occupation by the troops of Ottoman Empire occured in fall 1663, when the imperial mercenaries were forced to give up their quarters after a 27 days’ siege. In a summer storm of 1685 lightning struck into the high keep of the inner fort, exploding all gunpowder stored there. The giant explosion destroyed the inner fort completely, making it practically indefensible. Thereby it lost all military significance once and for all, its walls were ebbed away by remorseless weather and dispiecing hands of the vicinal population. ================================== Nógrád vára – a magyar történelem ezeréves néma tanúja – öregtornyának messziről látható csonkjával várja a távoli múltra kíváncsi látogatókat.
