Castle Přerov, Medieval castle in Přerov, Czech Republic

The stone fortress stands on elevated ground above the Bečva River, featuring Gothic architecture with Renaissance modifications and painted ceilings.

Originally constructed in the 13th century, the castle underwent substantial transformation in 1487 under Villém of Pernštejn's ownership and direction.

The castle houses the Comenius Museum, established in 1887, which presents exhibitions about local history and natural sciences of the region.

Guided tours of the castle operate daily from April through October, with entrance fees including access to both permanent and temporary exhibitions.

The castle's museum contains extensive collections of minerals and entomology specimens, displaying over 40,000 preserved insects from the region.
