The romantic castle was built on sandstone rocks on the site of the medieval castle of 14. century. It is one of the dominants of the Czech Paradise. The castle tower offers beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. Castle Hrubá Skála, the original name Castle Skála was built in 14. century on massive sandstone rocks. The name "Coarse Rock" (Hruba Skala) was created to distinguish it from a "small rock". Lock with the environment gained Albrecht Wallenstein from the last members of a dying race Smiřických , who affiliated to his duchy. After many fires, the originally Gothic castle was rebuilt into a renaissance castle. The castle was in the ' 60s. 20 years. it was converted into a trade union dormitory and became a forgotten cultural monument for nearly 50 years, thus dampening its original charm. 🤗🤗
