Zvolen was the seat of Ugrian kings and its buildings are interwoven with history. There are two enormous royalty seats here – The Deserted castle and Zvolenský castle, in which the Slovak National Gallery has its seat. The Deserted castle is the biggest castle in Europe, with the extent of 7.6 hectare. Not too far from the castle the combat train stands, that reminds us the history of the Slovak National Uprising. The surroundings of Zvolen are also a centre for relax and active sport with the possibility of relaxation in the nearby baths Sliač and Kováčová situated in the magnificent environment.
