The history of the medieval fortress dates back to the 13th century, when the existence of a defensive structure in this place was first recorded in the sources. In the 16th century it was the most modern fort in Europe. From the construction of the building until 1931, it also housed a prison. Currently, it is the seat of a historical museum as well as hostels and restaurants.
