Loket Castle, known locally as Hrad Loket, stands majestically over the Western Bohemian town of Loket, which was founded in the 9th century. Constructed a few hundred years after the town’s establishment, the castle features pointed turrets and thick stone walls, creating an imposing yet picturesque sight. Inside, the castle has been transformed into a museum, offering visitors a chance to explore its historic interiors and learn about its rich past.
