The harmony of history and nature.
The monumental and romantic ruins of the Dívčí Kámen (Girl’s Stone) castle.
The castle was built on a high cliff in the beautiful countryside above the confluence of the Křemžský Stream and the Vltava River between the towns of České Budějovice and Český Krumlov.
Dívčí Kámen is one of the most extensive and best preserved Middle Ages monuments in the Czech Republic.
The area of the castle was declared a natural reservation and is part of the Protected Landscape Area of Blanský les (Blansko Forest).
The place is made even more attractive by a nearby Celt oppida (fortified settlement) whose importance and size make it unique in Europe.
The castle was founded by the Rosenberg family in 1349 and abandoned by them in 1506.
500 years after it was abandoned by the family that founded it, it came into the ownership of the village of Křemže.
Currently, the castle is accessible year round.
Concerts; historic, fencing, and theatre presentations; Middle Ages markets and fairs; lectures; and exhibitions are all held within the castle.
