The core of the castle was closed by a wall wrapped into a polyhedron with a blunt british facing to the north. Behind the castleboy without window openings there was an internal development, including shed roofs. The castle was defended from the gallery on the crown, so it is a so-called. castle with cloak wall. Due to the lack of building stone, the castle was built of bricks, in addition to its foundations, where they used the stone, as a prevention of groundwater.The oldest palace, which had two floors and the upper floor had cross vaults, was connected to the western wall. There was a moat in front of the gate gates, but only at a distance of about 15m, which probably indicates the existence of a pre-gate or barbican.In the last quarter of the 18th century, building materials from the castle were used to build a nearby mansion. In 2016-2017 the remnants of the castle were reconstructed. At present, the remains of the castle are nicely modified and are part of a nicely maintained mansion park.

According to the results of archaeological research by M. Slivka, the construction of the first stage of the early Gothic lowland water castle (probably a residential tower with fortifications) can be dated to the 12th to 13th centuries. The castle was probably built in connection with the settlement of Parič, after which it bears the name. In 1298, Andronik is mentioned, a descendant of Ján of Trebišov, who at that time had his aristocratic residence on the Trebišov estate. However, King Karol Róbert took away his manor for unspecified disputes with his peasant Vavrinec Ormoš and in In 1319 he presented it to the landscape dignitary Filip Drugeth. After Philip's death, the king transferred the property to his nephew Viliam, and in this deed of gift from 1328, the castle is first mentioned as the castrum of Parys. The Drugeths probably rebuilt the castle. Due to the distance of the stone quarries, they only made foundations of stone, which they laid with a brick wall. During the reign of the Drugeth family, Juraj of Abajdócz served as their castellans and in 1358 certain Demeter. After several decades, the Drugeths returned the castle to the monarch.

Before 1373, King Louis I left the property to his wife Elizabeth, and the castle was inherited by her daughter, married to Sigismund of Luxembourg. The king presented the castle estate to Petr Perényi for his merits and military assistance. The Perényi family built up the courtyard with other buildings, and the castle took the form of an extensive aristocratic residence, reinforced by an outer moat. In 1454, a nobility gathered at Ján Perényi, which advised how to destroy the brothers. Surprisingly, Ján Jiskra from Brandýs was among them, who broke up with several comrades-in-arms at that time. However, the descendants of Ján Perényi set out on a bandit's journey, so Matej Korvín ordered the siege of the castle in 1483. After Imrich, who was a Hungarian palatine at the beginning of the 16th century, the castle was owned by Peter Perényi, who wanted to get rich by counterfeiting the money he invested in the further restoration of the castle. In 1567, Gabriel Perényi, the palatine branch of the family died out and the castle fell back into the hands of the Drugeth family.

During Bethlen's uprising (1619-1626) the castle was temporarily held by Juraj Széchy, but he soon returned to the hands of Ján Drugeth. During the estate uprisings, Sigismund Drugeth had the fortifications repaired in 1673, but Imrich Thököly's Kurucs conquered the castle in 1684 and executed the owner. Two years later, rebels set fire to the castle and destroyed it with an explosion. Sigismund also extinct the Drugeth family.

Almost 100 years later, in 1786, the Csáky family began to build a magnificent Baroque mansion from the material of the destroyed castle. After the reconstruction of the manor house and its extension by the Andrássy family in the second half of the 19th century, only the western section of the perimeter brick masonry and the remains of the moat remained visible from the remains of the lowland castle. Part of them was deepened as part of landscaping and extended to a small lake. The last work of destruction was completed on it by the Czechoslovak and Soviet armies in the second half of the 20th century, which turned it into a training range. Today, the park is nicely landscaped and more or less only one wall remains visible from the castle.

The rumor says

Everything happened at the castle. Peter Perényi had counterfeit money minted here, Juraj Drugeth allegedly threw his notary through the arch of the palace due to jealousy, and his son, later pardoned the son-in-law of the Čachtice lord, was convicted of losing his throat and property at the age of 17.

How was it with the notary

The castle lord Juraj went to war and left a young woman at home. Mrs. Euprozin was sad. The lonely woman had a good distraction with her husband's notary. From love, sinful love was born. The husband returned from the victorious fight and immediately knew something. He began to gather on the road again, but only in appearance. On a dark night, he secretly returned to the castle. The couple was surprised and angry and humiliated grabbed the notary by the neck and threw him out the window. Offended and disappointed, he left for the world. He returned many years later and forgave his wife. Late. She was no longer alive.
