Karlstejn Castle

Karlstejn Castle is located in Czechia. The Gothic castle was built from 1348 to 1365 as a stronghold by the Czech King and Roman Emperor Charles IV. The castle is set on a hill overlooking the Berounda River. The castle was where the Holy Roman Empire and the Bohemian/Czech crown jewels and other holy relics were kept until the 17th century. The structure was rebuilt in 1480 in the late Gothic style but altered to a Renaissance style at the end of the 16th century. The last reconstruction occurred in the 19th century giving Karlstejn Castle its current appearance. The interior boasts the Chapel of St. Nicholas, a Royal bedroom, an Audience Hall, a library, the Chapel of St. Catherine, the Imperial Palace, the Hall of Knights, the Chapel of the Holy Cross in the High Tower, where the imperial jewels were once kept, and the Holy Rood Chapel with more than 2,000 precious and semiprecious gems adorning the walls. The exterior has a small courtyard and a Well Tower. Karlstejn Castle is open to the public for tours. The state owns the castle.

Karlštejn Castle is a large Gothic castle in the Czech countryside. We had a rather cloudy day for touring, but the 14th century castle makes quite the impression sitting upon the hill.
