    Immediately after purchasing the ticket, the guide said that Helfštýn Castle is one of the largest in Europe. During the tour, each visitor confirmed this. The castle is beautiful, about seven centuries old. The blacksmith decoration is beautiful.

    Nicely restored chatteau set in a beautiful garden near the spa. There are two circuits in which you can compare two architectural styles. Very interesting.

    In place of the castle destroyed during the Thirty Years' War, the owner of the House of Liechtenstein attempted in the late 17th century to build a square palace with a courtyard in the middle. It ought to be the most beautiful palace in Moravia. Due to disagreements in the family, lack of money and decision-making without detailed knowledge of the terrain (without visiting the place!), the project was carried out only in a small part. This explains the very unusual location of the object as well as its rare proportions.

    Very impolite woman at the ticket office, she threw me against the money because he thought it was not due to me. Disturbing experience...

    This is one of the prettiest areas around Olomouc and worth a visit.
    Cannot comment on the inside of the Zamek as we did not have time

    I visited the castle while hiking in the Golden Mountains or Reichensteiner Gebirge. It was quite surreal to come across it, hidden in the forest on a cliff overlooking the Krebsgrundtal. Although it is an ancient ruin, you can still see the outside walls, large rooms and the imposing tower (that you can climb on). I truly enjoyed discovering it and will definitely return back one day...
