- Karlstejn Castle - Your private guide and driver will pick you up at your Prague location. After a 45-minute comfortable drive, youâll arrive at Karlstejn village. From there, itâs a 20-minute walk up to the castle. After exploring some courtyards, youâll enjoy a guided tour of the Imperial Palace, which was the residence of the king, his court, and noblewomen (joining a group, admission 13 EUR for a basic 1-hour tour; 30 EUR for a 1.5-hour exclusive tour - reservation in advance required).
The castle was built by Bohemian king and Roman emperor Charles IV, who was so humble that he entered the highest and most sacred place (Holy Cross Chapel) only barefoot. The Chapel is adorned with 129 paintings and served as an exceptional storage for crown jewels and holy relics (the exclusive tour).
This unique place is rich with stories and legends. One legend says that the castle was built solely for the secular and sacred purposes of the king, and to facilitate meditation, women were forbidden from entering.
