Why Eger Minaret matters
The minaret is a remnant of the Ottoman period. Climbing its narrow staircase rewards you with a view over the town. Not for those who dislike tight spaces. The climb is narrow and steep, so go when it is not busy, and take your time on the way down.
Talking points
- It is a rare Ottoman remnant this far north.
- The climb is narrow and steep.
- The town view is worth it.
