Rožmberk Castle
Rožmberk Castle is a medieval castle on a Vltava river promontory near Rožmberk nad Vltavou in South Bohemia, long associated with the House of Rožmberk. The site preserves a compact main palace with towers, a lower bailey and museum interiors assembled and remodelled over centuries and opened to the public in the 19th century.

As it stood in 1857
The shape it held in its prime.
Perched on a steep river promontory carved on three sides by the Vltava, the castle presents a long, white plastered main palace with painted sgraffito motifs and a steep slate roof punctuated by dormers. Two prominent towers terminate the roofline: a square, crenellated keep with corbelled battlements and a taller, roofed corner tower with a pointed, hipped cap. The lower courtyard and ramparts step down the rock toward the river, and a narrow footbridge connects the slope from the roadside village below. The façade reads as layered historic fabric finished in the 19th-century Romantic taste.
