Baby, let the light go on!

A week of windows and doors from Hungary.

This window is in the courtyard of the Silkos Castle in the town of Siklos. The plaster (stucko to the US people?) came from large wall areas. By design or age I wouldn't know. What I found most interestin is what was revealed. How windows and doors were taken out and added in over time. I guess every castle owner and his wife had their own ideas.

The foundations of this castle date from the mid 13th century, the castle itself from the 18th century and the castle walls from the 15th century. The castle now houses a couple of museums and a cultural centre.
