Hrad Šebeš
On the northwestern edge of the Slanské vrchy, which are overgrown with fragrant forest flowers, dense bushes, and massive trees, you can find an interesting place. It is the Hrad Šebeš castle, also known as Šebešský hrad. Today, only ruins remain of it. Upon closer inspection of the map, you will find that it cadastrally belongs to the territory of the village of Podhradík, located in the Prešov district.
When visiting the castle, park your car in the parking lot of the village of Podhradík directly below the castle. From this free parking lot, an educational trail will lead you directly to the castle. The route is easy and accessible on foot throughout the entire year. On 5 information panels, you can learn more about the history of the castle between 1315 and 1528, archaeological research, the restoration of the castle, stone witnesses, as well as the downfall of the castle. This educational trail is used for local history field trips by schools or by tourists who want to enjoy magnificent views of the village and its surrounding pristine nature.
The castle stands at an altitude of 529 m a.s.l. The site has been declared a national cultural monument and an archaeological site featuring a castle from the 13th century. The castle can be found on a hill above the village, the name of which recalls the location of the Podhradie fort. In the past, the castle was built on an 8 m wide and 60 m long steep spur. The attentive eye of a visitor will not miss its foundations built of stone. A circular tower once stood on the edge of the western side. In the eastern part, there was a residential palace along with a defensive wall above the entrance to the castle. There was also a ditch and a rampart fortification.
When exploring the history of this castle, historical sources mention the year 1315. In a deed of donation by King Charles Robert, the territory along with the castle was granted to Thomas's son, Knight Synko. After the demise of this family line, the castle was donated to the city of Košice. The castle permanently ceased to exist in 1550, when the inhabitants of the city of Prešov burned it down. Only ruins remained, which local residents still visit today for recreational purposes.
If you would like to explore other historical monuments of this region, you can subsequently head to Zbojnícky hrad in the village of Ruská Nová Ves. On summer days, you can refresh yourself at the Vodná nádrž Sigord reservoir. In Prešov, in addition to the salt production museum in Solivar, you can look at the stars in the glowing sky at the Hvezdáreň a planetárium. A session in the Soľná jaskyňa salt cave also has excellent effects on the body. After a walk through the historical center and a visit to the Konkatedrála sv. Mikuláša, you can treat yourself to an excellent cup of coffee.
