Kamýk Castle, Gothic castle ruin in Litoměřice, Czech Republic
Kamýk Castle is a Gothic castle ruin situated on elevated ground, with fragments of inner walls indicating the original medieval layout. The footprint of former rooms and internal structures remains visible in the remaining stonework.
The earliest written record of this site dates to 1236, when it operated under royal administration. In 1561, nobles purchased the castle from the crown, marking a shift in ownership and control.
The ruins hold official status as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic and display Gothic architectural traits. Visitors can observe traces of medieval construction methods in the remaining stonework.
The ruin is located in a village south of Prague and is best reached with navigation assistance. The site sits on elevated ground, so visitors should expect uneven surfaces and potentially sparse pathways.
The exact origins of this castle and the circumstances of its decline are sparsely documented in historical records. This lack of detailed information makes the ruin a mysterious chapter in local architectural history.
