Frymburk, Medieval castle ruin in Nový Hrádek, Czech Republic.

The stone fortification stands at 535 meters above sea level, featuring two entrance gates and five palace halls within its Gothic architecture.

The castle construction began in the early 14th century and endured multiple damages, including a powder explosion in 1573 and an earthquake in 1605.

The castle contains a picture gallery displaying portraits of the Buquoy family, representing centuries of Czech nobility and architectural evolution.

Visitors can access the castle at Hradní 184 in Nový Hrádek, with a souvenir shop and permission to bring dogs to the premises.

The northern section of the Orlické Mountains was previously named Frymburk Mountains, reflecting the castle's regional influence.
