Zrícenina hradu Devín. Tato atraktivní lokalita - skalnatý ostroh nad rekou Dunaj - byla osídlena již v dobe ríše Velké Moravy jako ochrana pred Franskou ríší.
V 13. století zde byla vybudována pohranicní pevnost. Zlatý vek zažila pevnost v 15. století, kdy hrad vlastnila dynastie Garayových.
Poté jej vlastnilo ješte nekolik rodu.
Za konec hradu mužeme považovat rok 1809, kdy hrad znicila Napoleonska vojska. Od té doby hrad chátrá.
