The Smolenice castle is an old dominant of the Carpatian region in the north-west to Trnava. It was build in the 15th century and considerably repaired at the beginning of the 20th century. Nowadays, as a property of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, it is a popular place for conferences, exhibitions and weddings.

Smolenice is a village in the Carpathians located 50 km away from Bratislava. The best access by car is from the D1 highway at the exit to Trnava. Please note you need a weekly highway vignette that will cost you 7€. If you plan to arrive by public transport, the best option is to get to Bratislava and then to take a bus or train to Trnava. From Trnava, you can take another bus or train to Smolenice. Be sure to check your schedule for buses and trains.
