Description

The original Lanšperk castle was probably founded by Přemysl Otakar II in the middle of the 13th century during colonization of the area and abandoned at the end of the 16th century. Remains of the cellars and cross walls of the palace have been preserved up to now. In the east it is divided from today´s village by a massive ditch and rampart.
