Located in the Czech Republic, Česky Krumlov is a unique and extraordinary city that was first settled in the fifteenth century B.C. The entire city is an historical monument and a pearl of European architecture.

The Budweis Gate has secured the Czech city from the north since the Middle Ages.

Place Of Harmony Square is flanked by town houses most of which date back to Gothic and Renaissance times. Its ornately decorated historic buildings have been well preserved and are fully reminiscent of the Middle Ages.

The interaction of the river and the old town is an indelible feature that adds to its timeless beauty.

The Red Gate leads into the palace grounds in which the moat contains a number of bears. The tower, palace and surrounding buildings formed the small Hrádek Castle, originally an Early Gothic residential castle of the House Of Vítkovci.

Even today the remarkable Český Krumlov continues to exude a sense of living history.
