Planning the visit in Cesky Krumlov

Cesky Krumlov Castle

Although it is one of the largest castles in the world, the Cesky Krumlov Castle is only the second largest castle in the Czech Republic. The castle grounds span for over 10 hectares and host a variety of festivals and events throughout the year. Visitors can climb up the emblematic castle tower for a wonderful view of Cesky Krumlov and its surrounding countryside.

Church of St. Vitus

Located right next to the Cesky Krumlov Castle, this 14th century Gothic church is still preserved in its original state and worth the visit. It has a 17th century altar and several frescoes and original paintings.

Latran

Latran is the best preserved part of the Old Town. The cobblestoned streets and the medieval houses will make you feel like you have gone back in time. The streets are filled with restaurants and souvenir shops, so be sure to take your time here.

Budweiser Gate

The Budweiser Gate is the only remaining gate in Cesky Krumlov. Once upon a time, there were 8 other gates built into the town's fortifications, but they were all destroyed or torn down. Be sure to see both sides of the gate, since they are completely different depending from where you are looking at it.
