We saw the towers and we were a bit confused as what they were. I thought since they are made out of concrete and they do not seem to have a finishing on the concrete that they were an unfinished project. The towers stand out from the other buildings around them not only for their size and shape but also because of the raw concrete color. So when we parked the car properly we walked to see. Well it is the Community and Cultural Centre. It does not seem that one can walk inside the towers as there is a gate with a padlock on the bottom of each. When we walked inside the community centre it was a WOW. W were fascinated by the structure. Enjoy the phographs! It was great to be inside. We were not charged for visiting this place. We went to the lowest floor to ask since when we walked in there was nobody around. It is the public library and the ladies there invited us to explore.

We love castles and we went specifically to Szigetvar to visit this castle. It is made with bricks and it is quite large. The museum inside the castle is very well presented ;even a video with a re-creation of the Siege of Szigetvar. Quite dramatic. I took a video, too large to download but my eyes were a little bit wet. It was quite dramatic and being inside it is easier to imagine what a battle it was and why it is such a big part of the Hungarian History. Children were already in school and we noticed that in many historical places and museums, groups of children came to learn their history with their teachers...lovely to see. Outside this castle little ones were given a little horse ride.
