Nevytske Castle

Nevytske Castle is a semi-ruined castle in Zakarpattia Oblast, Ukraine.

It is located 12 kilometres north of Uzhhorod near villages Nevytske and Kamianytsia, Uzhhorod Raion along the H 13. The castle is located in woods on the hill of volcanic origin with relative elevation of 122 metres and few hundred meters to the east of the road and river that flows along. Such location of the castle was giving a good opportunity to control Transcarpathian route over the Uzhok pass.

The castle was first mentioned in 1274 belonging to the King of Hungary Laszlo IV as a dungeon or a keep. Completely rebuilt in the early 15th century, it, towering over the Uzh River, was the mighty citadel of the Drugeth family which supervised its continuous modernisation over the centuries.
