Cesky Sternberk Castle (Hrad Cesky Sternberk)

Cesky Sternberk Castle, perched on a cliff above the small village of Sternberk in the Bohemian countryside, dates back to the 1240s. Over the centuries, it has undergone significant transformations, including a Gothic redesign in the 15th century and a baroque renovation in the 17th. The castle’s enduring legacy is evident in its continuous ownership by the descendants of its original builders, who still reside within its walls.
