Day 01
Medieval Highlights of Český Krumlov
- We will begin our tour with panoramic views of the old town and the large medieval castle overlooking the Vltava River. Then, marvel at the Gothic architectural style of the historic St. Vitus Church before visiting the former Jesuit College and the Jesuit Gardens, while dwelling on the country's religious history.
- The next stop on our tour will be Svornosti Square, surrounded by several beautiful buildings, one of them being the Town Hall.
- At Barber's Bridge, hear the legends of the barber that gave it its name. You can also take in the postcard-perfect view of the castle and the river from the bridge. Barber's Bridge connects the two parts of Český Krumlov.
- We will then cross over to visit the other part of town, with houses adorned with beautiful frescoes discovered relatively recently during renovation works. We will walk down Latrán Street and see the Minorite Monastery and the Red Bridge.
- Towards the end of the tour, we will visit the castle, exploring its five different courtyards, the glorious Castle Tower, and the Cloak Bridge. Here, we can try spotting bears in the moat as we relish the lovely view beyond.
