Destination

The region of Simontornya, Hungary, is lush with rolling hillsides, beautiful mountainside estates and wildlife including deer, rabbits and ducks. Simontornya — translated as Simon’s Tower — began in the 1200s with the construction of a single tower in the swamps of the Sio river. Over time, the tower underwent multiple renovations and additions as the village expanded, including a Gothic wing, Renaissance enhancements and military upgrades when Turks took over the building. The people around Simontornya Castle formed a small Hungarian community of fewer than 5,000 people. During World War II, Simontornya was occupied by the Germans, soon followed by the Russians. Today, the town stands proudly in Tolna County.
