Historic Centre of Cesky Krumlov

Cesky Krumlov’s Old Town centre has retained the authentic features of its Medieval origins and renaissance and baroque transformations.  The town centre is so tiny that you can easily walk from one end to the other in under half an hour. Visit in the summer to picnic in the parks or relax with an ice cold beer at one of the quaint riverside bars. Head to the town in winter and stroll along Radnicni Street where you’ll be treated to pastel coloured houses and cobbled streets dusted with snow.

This 14th century gothic town hall was once the residence of the wealthy Cert family. Today, the building is home to the Municipal Police and The Museum of Torture. Located in one of the town’s main market squares, the Town Hall is surrounded by souvenir shops and delightful cafes and snack bars.
