Castle Cesky Krumlov, Southern Bohemia

In the mid-13th century the lords of Krumlov, who belonged to the important noble family of Vitkovec, founded the castle Krumlov on a steep rocky bulge above the stream of the river Vltava. In 1302 the Rosenberg family took over the Cesky Krumlov castle and made it its main residential place. During the era of Vilem of Rosenberg the huge Gothic castle was rebuilt under the guidance of Italian masters into a monumental Renaissance residence and at the same period it became important cultural, social and economic centre of the large Rosenberg dominion. At the end of the 17th century the Cesky Krumlov castle went again through extensive reconstruction into the Baroque style. At this time a famous castle Baroque theatre was built. Later the castle theatre was further equipped with a large collection of wings by Viennese painters, theatre costumes and requisites from the 18th century. In the Cesky Krumlov castle complex you can further find a large garden with wooden pavilions Belaria and music one as well as a winter castle riding-school. The Cesky Krumlov castle theatre and the park are accessible by the corridors on the upper floors of the Late Baroque bridge being considered a technical sight, which vaults across the castle moat. In 1992 the whole historical complex of the Cesky Krumlov castle was included in the UNESCO list of cultural and natural heritage.

At the Cesky Krumlov castle hotel you will be treated like members of the royal family.
