V polovině 14. století založil hrad tento král Karel IV jakožto správní centrum svých zdejších držav. Hrad umístil do severní části hlubokého panství na ostroch nad řekou Vltavou. Bohužel hrad doplatil na svoji nevhodnou polohu a již na konci téhož století byl opuštěn a počal chátrat. Hrad nebyl nikdy obnoven a v časech současných je znám jen jako romantická zřícenina. #karluvhradek #city #hlubokanadvltavou #romanticruin #vltavariver #forests #kingcharles4 #history #archeology #survey #southbohemianregion #czechrepublic #czechboy #pilgrim #traveling #thewayofknowing #instagram #follow4like #followforfollowback (v místě Karlův Hrádek - Purkarec) https://www.instagram.com/p/B18UlzqCsgU/?igshid=12508vs01adfs

wonderful serenity thanks to @ The serene reflection of this 13th century medieval abbey looks like a luminous, Gothic egg tempera suspended upon the water.. a magically soulful composition.. . . . . . Historical Facts: "Abbaye de Royaumont was founded in 1228 by the boy king of France, Louis IX, and his formidable Regent/Mother Blanche de Castille, who was a granddaughter of Eleanor of Aquitaine..." . . "Known as Louis the Saint, the devout king led the Seventh Crusade (1248-54) to the Holy Land accompanied by his wife, Queen Margaret, where he was captured by Egyptian Mamluk warriors just as the queen was giving birth to a son in nearby Damietta.... They Royal couple was eventually ransomed for 80,000 gold coins and returned to France with their newborn son, Tristan (sorrow). . It’s worth noting that the king’s life did not lack for drama 👑⚜️👑 . Louis IX finally raised funds and launched the Eighth Crusade in 1270 where he died that same year in North Africa... two of his infant children were buried at the abbey. " Thank you @christopherfilippidis and @graciousopulence for the beautiful Tuesday post via @patrivia.officiel Photo Antoine Versyuls . . Louis IX died exactly in Tunis where I live signed Tyna . . . . . . . #paintedwaters #frencharchitecture #gothicbeauty #reflections #romanticruins #historicalmonument #thecrusaders #abbaye #archilovers #architecturalphotography #medievalhistory #louisixoffrance #classical #abbayederoyaumont https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ_fAs3hlkc/?utm_medium=tumblr
