Moravský Krumlov Castle
Moravský Krumlov Castle, Renaissance château in Moravský Krumlov, Czech Republic.
Moravský Krumlov is a Renaissance castle built on elevated ground that comprises multiple connected structures. The complex includes a stable from 1593 and a chapel constructed in 1762, both forming part of the larger compound.
The castle was founded in 1289 by Ottokar II of Bohemia as a defensive structure serving military purposes. Over time it transformed into a Renaissance residence that reflected the changing needs of its occupants.
The castle once housed Alphonse Mucha's monumental painting series The Slav Epic, which was displayed here for a period. This collection brought recognition to the site among visitors interested in Czech art history.
The castle sits roughly 28 kilometers northeast of Znojmo and about 25 kilometers southwest of Brno in the surrounding region. Check conditions before visiting since the castle is no longer in regular operation for public tours.
The castle's name comes from a meander of the Rokytná River, giving the site a geographical distinction. The name Moravský was added in 1661 to separate it from the better-known Český Krumlov.
