Uherský Ostroh Castle

Uherský Ostroh Castle is a fortified structure in the town of Uherský Ostroh that blends architectural elements from different centuries. The building displays Renaissance details alongside a central tower that rises above the compound and provides views of the surrounding countryside.

The castle began as a water fortress built in the 13th century under King Ottokar II and was documented in written records by 1275. This early construction established the site as a significant defensive settlement in the region.

The castle maintains a tradition of guided tours with personnel dressed in period costumes, representing different epochs of Czech noble life.

The castle stands at the town center at Zámecká 24 where the town hall and visitor information office are now located. The central position makes it easy to find and visit while exploring the town.

The castle cellar contains a crystal cave where visitors can create musical tones that connect to legends about the lost city of Atlantis.
