Eger Castle is a medieval fortress famous for the heroic 1552 siege, when approximately 2,000 Hungarian defenders led by Captain Istvan Dobo held off an Ottoman army of over 40,000 soldiers for 38 days. The siege was immortalized in Geza Gardonyi's novel 'Eclipse of the Crescent Moon'. The complex includes multiple exhibitions, a wax museum depicting the siege, underground casemates, a castle cinema, and panoramic views over the city. One of Hungary's most significant historical monuments and a symbol of national resistance
