The local experience
The castle of Český Krumlov extends above the Vltava, linked by courtyards and passages on the hillside. The painted tower and buildings of varying heights help identify the complex from the center. The route covers a larger area than the tower’s image alone suggests.
The historic center of Český Krumlov occupies a narrow bend of the Vltava. Houses with ceramic roofs, narrow streets and small bridges form a core that is explored on foot. The river’s position explains why the same castle reappears from different angles during the walk.
The Church of São Vito stands out above the roofs of Český Krumlov’s center. The slender tower helps locate the building in views from the castle. It sits on the other side of the historic core and allows comparison of the religious space’s scale with the nearby streets and houses.
