Nový Hrádek, Castle ruin in Lukov, Czech Republic

The castle complex consists of both an upper and lower structure positioned on a cliff overlooking the Thaya River valley in southern Moravia.

The castle originated in the 13th century under Johann Heinrich von Luxemburg, who served as Margrave of Moravia from 1349 to 1375.

This national monument preserves medieval architectural elements while providing habitat for numerous plant species including rock stonecrop and white wall pepper.

The castle ruins require a guided tour to access the three levels of the New Castle and the remaining systems of the Old Castle.

The site integrates naturally with Podyjí National Park, Moravia's only national park, spanning 63 square kilometers along the Czech-Austrian border.
