The castle is one of the most visited places in Bohemia and is part of the historical route from Mannheim in Germany. At the height of the season, there are up to 3,000 visitors a day, so guided tours are mandatory and are conducted at a hectic pace. You will discover the castle founded by Charles IV who wanted to house the jewels of the imperial and royal crowns there. The construction, which lasted only nine years, was started by Matthias of Arras and completed by Petr Parléř. The castle was first rebuilt in the late 16th century by Giovanni Maria Aostalis and in the 19th century by Friedrich Schmidt and Josef Mocker.
