Perched on a promontory above a tight meander of the Vltava River, Český Krumlov Castle is the second-largest castle complex in Bohemia. Its cylindrical tower, painted in trompe-l'œil Renaissance detail, anchors a skyline that photographers frame from the castle garden terrace at dusk. The baroque theater inside preserves original stage machinery from the 18th century.
