New times have come...

 

Notwithstanding the collapse of section of the several centuries-old castle walls in 2003, Trenčín’s reputation as a strategic center of the Váh River region has not suffered.  The castle would always be a silent witness to many changes, booms, and failures that have carved the present image of this unique place. The Velvet Revolution of 1989 laid the foundation for implementing new visions and promised a brighter future for the people of Trenčín. The Soviet armies on their exodus from Slovakia in 1991 left the city as well. With the Slovak Republic acceding to the European Union on May 1, 2004, the city of Trenčín is now a proud European city.
