This medieval complex has served multiple roles over the centuries, including as a royal residence, religious center, and military fortress. Today, visitors can explore its historic buildings and enjoy panoramic views of Prague. The site’s strategic location and historical significance make it one of the Czech Republic’s most important National Cultural Monuments.
