One of the most iconic castles in Slovakia is Trencin castle, that is builded on high rock over the city of Trencin. You can see here 80 metres deep "Well of Love" and breathtaking view on city around. It got its name "Well of Love" thanks to the rumor about Fatima and her beloved Omar. Rumor has it that Stefan Zapolsky imprisoned Fatima and, as a rich magnate, did not care about Omar's gold. In order to free Fatima, Omar promised to dig a well in the hard rock of Trencin Castle. For three years he dug with his fellows until the rock actually released water, but only a few diggers survived. Omar handed the first glass of water to Zapolsky with the words: "You have water Zapolsky, but you have no heart". As Omar was taking the freed Fatima on horseback out of the castle, her veil caught on an arrow bush. The oldest inn in Trencin still stands at this place, called "Fatima" (or in earlier times also "Veil"), which was mentioned as early as 1568.

We will visit Skalka monastery. But entrance in is possible only in summer months. In winter between September and May we can see monastery only from outside. Skalka near Trenčín is the ruin of a monastery from the 12th century. It is the oldest pilgrimage site in Slovakia. It also includes a smaller cave complex, inside the monastery. The monastery is near the river Vah, with beautiful view on mountains around. According to rumors, the hermit St. Benedict, lived in the cave.
