The town of Nové Zámky was mentioned for the first time in 1545 as a defense stronghold against Turkish raids. The original rectangular layout was with four auricle bastions. Several years later a new castle was built on the opposite bank of the river Nitra the present name of the town is derived from the castle. The castle known also as Castrum Novum was built in the regular hexagonal star-like layout. It had six multifloor bastions from which only the names have been preserved Žerotin s, Fridrich s, Caesar s, Czech, Ernest s, and Forgach s. In the dramatic struggle between the Habsburgs and Turks the castle got into hand of Turks in 1663 who cruelly ruled there until 1685, when the territory of the town was conquered back by the army of Carl of Lotharingie. In 1691 Esztergom Archbishop Gyorgy Szécsényi issued the document granting town s and other important privileges to Nove Zámky. Only a few monuments and buildings of this history have been preserved, though, as most of them were destroyed during the 2nd World War between 1944 and 1945 due to three bomb-attacks. After the 2nd World War the town was newly rebuilt. But in spite of it in the district museum Roman inscription plates and other documents about the first settlements in the town can be found.
