Český Krumlov Vacation Guide
Český Krumlov is considered to be one of the most striking Czech towns. The unique medieval town centre with the huge and large castle is protected by the UNESCO and it is the second most important historical complex in Bohemia (after Prague).
The town has a scenic location on the slopes above the meanders of the Vltava river about 25 km south of the town České Budějovice, 492 m a.s.l.
The most important and well-known sight of the town is the castle of the same name. It towers on the rock above the meander of the Vltava river. Its present appearance originates in the last reconstruction in the Baroque and Rococo styles between 1744 - 1767. The former settlement Latrán is situated east of the castle. It was enlarged in the middle of the 14th century, when the New Town was founded on the bank of the Vltava river. The town walls do not exist now, only the round bastion with the pyramidal roof from 1506 and the Budějovická Brána (Budějovice Gate), which was built at the end of the 16th century in the style of the Italian Renaissance, have been preserved up till present.
