State Castle and Chateau Český Krumlov

When it comes to the most iconic building in fairy tales, it has to be the magnificent castles. Built in 1240 of the medieval period, the Český Krumlov State Castle is the most iconic landmark in the town. Other than the Prague Castle, it is the largest existing castle in the Czech Republic. The castle comes with the medieval elegance inside and outside. There are elaborate and luxurious carvings, sophisticated layout and furniture; the style is simply extraordinary.

Such a spectacular castle is the result of the effort invested in conservation. The castle even includes a baroque theatre and part of the original settings and props. The whole castle area was declared a national monument in 1992 and later World Heritage by UNESCO.
