This is one of the oldest and most amazing castles of Czech princes and kings. The castle was established in the 12th century. It was developed by Přemysl Otakar II and Václav II as a majestical, royal castle. Václav IV rebuilt it and Vladislav Jagellonský further built it out. Much damage was caused due to fire. It was then turned into a feared prison. In the 19 century the kastle was renovated by Furstenberg.
