Medieval Golubac Fortress-an impressive cliffside castle overlooking the entrance to the Iron Gates-fell into disarray in the 20th century. It underwent restoration from 2005 to 2016 and is now open to the public. Golubac has three main sections guarded by nine towers-all connected by thick stone walls. The fortress has passed through the hands of the Hungarians, Bulgarians, and Serbs repeatedly. On a side note, the site was a runner-up choice as a shooting location for Game of Thrones.
