Sárospatak occupies the Bodrog River valley beneath the Zemplén Mountains in north-eastern Hungary. The town is closely associated with Rákóczi Castle, whose red-brick Red Tower is a defining feature of its historic centre; the complex recalls the Rákóczi family’s place in Hungarian history. Another lasting institution is the Sárospatak Reformed College, founded in 1531 and long important to Protestant education in Hungary. The surrounding area belongs to the Tokaj-Hegyalja wine region, between the Great Plain and Hungary’s wooded north.
