About
クイックファクト: Climbing the steep, mosaic-lined courtyards rewards you with a Baroque theater whose original stage machinery still works, offering a rare glimpse of living historical spectacle. A winding tower walkway frames ribbon-like river views and hides over 300 rooms tucked into the hillside, so wandering feels like unlocking secret chapters with every staircase.
ハイライト: An 18th-century Baroque theatre tucked in one courtyard still uses original stage machinery and hand-painted backdrops, and during special performances the stalls glow with the light of dozens of candles while painted stage flats rotate in synchrony. A living tradition has kept brown bears in the castle moat since the 16th century, so you can peer over the parapet to watch them lumber in the grass below while the Vltava river murmurs around the bend.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes for steep cobbled paths and many stairs.
- Climb the castle tower just before sunset for the best panoramic photos over the red roofs.
- Skip the longest guided circuits if short on time, choose the highlights tour that includes the tower and main ceremonial rooms.
- Visit the Castle Garden and the Baroque theatre courtyard for quieter views and interesting photo angles.
