Vítkův Kámen, Mountain summit with castle ruins in South Bohemia, Czech Republic
Vítkův Kámen rises to 1035 meters, featuring stone castle ruins at its peak within the Šumava protected landscape area of the Bohemian Forest.
The castle at Vítkův Kámen, constructed around 1220, served as a prison for King Wenceslaus in 1394 during conflicts with Bohemian nobility.
The site connects to the legacy of the Witigo dynasty and Rosenberg family, who controlled extensive territories across medieval Bohemia and Austria.
Visitors can access the observation platform installed in 2006, which presents views spanning both Czech Republic and Austrian territories.
The castle estate once managed fifteen villages and operated a glassworks facility before its transfer to Emperor Rudolf II in 1602.
