Simontornya

Simontornya straddles the Sió Canal in Transdanubia, a position that places the town on the water route running from the Lake Balaton basin toward the Danube. Its defining landmark is Simontornya Castle, a fortified complex whose earliest surviving parts date from the 13th century. Romanesque foundations, Gothic rebuilding and Renaissance additions make the castle a compact record of changing architectural styles; it now contains museum displays. Beyond the centre, Tolna County’s low agricultural terrain gives Simontornya a distinctly rural setting.
