The renovation of the Castle and creation of the new Franciscan order exhibition of the Castle Museum in Fiľakovo were financed by the Interreg V-A Slovakia-Hungary Cooperation Programme, as a result of the project Touristic Development of Franciscan Cultural Heritage Sites of the Border Area by the Cooperation of the Two Provinces (MONUMENTIS) (SKHU/1601/1.1/060).
The novelties in this season are the archaeological study trail and craft house, which shows traditional crafts and is also a location for group activities. In the newly shingled bastion of the courtyard information panels provide interesting facts about nearby castles.
Under the Castle a high capacity parking lot was built, and the only surviving bastion of the city was renovated and within an information point was placed for the visitors.
As part of the Interreg project an exhibition about the history of the building and the Franciscan order was also established.
