About Státní hrad a zámek Český Krumlov
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 interiors feature Renaissance and Baroque spaces, while the Baroque theatre has its own route. The Mantle Bridge links sections of the complex and helps understand its placement over the valley. The gardens are on the upper part and add a walk in addition to the courtyards.
Choose the circuit before ascending and check whether the tower, the interiors and the theatre are included in the same visit plan. Entries should not be treated as a single visit. There are slopes and stone paving between sectors; to enjoy the whole complex, set aside a morning and leave the town center for later.
