Cesky Krumlov castle was founded by the Vitkovec family in the first half of the 13th century. After 1302, it became the mail seat of Rozmberks. The castle was expanded several times and in the 16th century was rebuilt into renaisance chateau. Later, the owners the Eggenberg and Schwarzenberk families made some baroque modifications. Also the chateau´s chapel was rebuilt, masquarade hall decorated and a new manor theatre built. The castle´s viewing tower is nice highlight of the city.
