Reviews
The castle is opened for visit only with a guide, only in Czech language. Still, the person that sells the tickets speaks English and can give you a translated version of the tour. The tour lasts for one hour and you don't get bored during it. Kids and pets are welcomed. While waiting for your tour, you can have a beverage/ some food at the terrace/ restaurant nearby, by the lake.
Tucked away in a thick forest in the Cesky Raj region is the Kost Castle, or the Bone Castle. Named for its impenetrable, thick walls, Kost Castle is the best-preserved Gothic castle in the Czech Republic. This charming castle is set on a low promontory overlooking fishponds that give it a moated effect.
It is believed that the first proposal for construction of the castle was in 1349. Despite undergoing some work in the 1950s, Kost Castle retains most of its original features.
Tour the main interiors and learn about Kost Castle’s current owners or take a tour of the trapezoidal White Tower that was built specially to minimize missile damage and the medieval torture chamber.
Kost Castle and the surrounding countryside are definitely worth a trip from Prague.
Nice castle!
