Сesky Sternberk Castle – A Journey into Czech Nobility

Step back in time with a half-day trip from Prague to Сesky Sternberk Castle, one of the oldest and best-preserved castles in the Czech Republic. Perched high above the Sázava River, this stunning medieval fortress has belonged to the same noble family for over 800 years — and they still live there today!
As we drive just 40 minutes from Prague through the peaceful Czech countryside, I’ll share fascinating stories about the history of the region and the influential Šternberk dynasty. When we arrive, you’ll enjoy a guided tour inside the castle, where beautifully furnished rooms reveal centuries of aristocratic life, art, and tradition.
Admire the breathtaking views from the castle walls and learn how this fortress withstood wars, revolutions, and the communist regime — and how it was returned to its rightful owners after 1989.
This charming getaway is perfect for lovers of history, architecture, and hidden gems that most tourists miss.
