Libá Castle and palace were the center of the Liebenstein rule. Hans von Sparneck sold Liebenstein Castle in 1426 to the von Zedtwitz family on Neuberg , who had already built up considerable property in the Ascher Ländchen. The robber baron Jörg von Zedtwitz used the castle for his raids against the city of Eger and owners of neighboring castles such as Seeberg or Haslau. The castle was finally destroyed by troops from the city of Eger, and Jörg von Zedtwitz narrowly escaped with his life. Christoph von Zedtwitz was the defending captain in 1553Siege of court .
The castle fell into ruin in the decades after the Second World War. After the end of Czechoslovakia , decisive steps were taken to preserve it. A private investor intends to use the castle as a hotel. The first repair measures, such as a complete roof repair, the insertion of windows and repair work on the outer facade, stopped the advanced decay. In the meantime, excavation work in the basement has brought new knowledge about the first castle complex at this point. Destroyed rooms were reconstructed with stucco decorations based on old photographs . The castle is currently inaccessible as a construction site.
References:The ancient Argos Theater was built in 320 BC. and is located in Argos, Greece against Larissa Hill. Nearby from this site is Agora, Roman Odeon, and the Baths of Argos. The theater is one of the largest architectural developments in Greece and was renovated in ca 120 AD.
The Hellenistic theater at Argos is cut into the hillside of the Larisa, with 90 steps up a steep incline, forming a narrow rectilinear cavea. Among the largest theaters in Greece, it held about 20,000 spectators and is divided by two landings into three horizontal sections. Staircases further divide the cavea into four cunei, corresponding to the tribes of Argos A high wall was erected to prevent unauthorized access into the theatron and may have helped the acoustics, but it is said the sound quality is still very good today.
Around 120 CE, both theaters were renovated in the Roman style.
