Třemšín

Třemšín is a castle ruin on elevated ground in Voltuš, with stone walls and foundations that reveal medieval construction techniques. The surviving wall sections show different building phases and suggest how the entire structure once functioned.

The castle was built around 1200 as a strategic fortification during a period of intensive castle construction across the Bohemian region. It was later abandoned and gradually fell into the ruins visible today.

The ruins display features of medieval residential design that remain visible in the surviving stone structures today. Visitors can trace the layout of rooms and imagine how daily life unfolded within these walls.

Visitors reach the ruins via marked hiking trails that connect to a wider network of paths through the surrounding area. These trails are generally accessible but require sturdy footwear and care on uneven terrain.

The ruins contain architectural evidence of two distinct purposes: both military defensive structures and residential quarters from different periods. This reveals how the castle's function shifted over time.
