Best photo spots

The castle's tower and Chad Bridge offer a great vantage of the town.

So does the view from Horni street, but here your camera captures the town and castle simultaneously.

The Lazebnicky (barber's) bridge provides a riveting upward view of the castle, as do several nearby restaurants with outdoor seating along the river.

Finally, you can take classic shots of the castle's round tower framed by houses as you walk down some streets.
