SK, Pezinok - Walk Through the Castle Park
The most beautiful historical monument of Pezinok, which is undoubtedly the Pezin Castle (Šimák Castle), is a beautiful park. This natural jewel was built in 1844 under the supervision of Count František Pálfy and still offers not only rare trees or flora, but also multiple lakes overflowing with fish and swimming ducks. But the biggest attraction are the free-roaming peacocks, which love to show off to park visitors. Of course, there are plenty of benches, a playground, an exercise area or a nice gazebo.
