Hrad Zvíkov
Zvíkovské Podhradí
Zvíkov Castle, nicknamed the "king of Czech castles," stands on a rocky spur above the confluence of the Vltava and Otava rivers. This well-preserved medieval castle, with its Gothic palace, arcaded courtyard, and mighty Markomanka Tower, is among the finest monuments of its kind in the Czech Republic. Its position above the Orlík reservoir offers romantic views and the option of arriving by boat. It's a rewarding day-trip destination from Písek and the wider South Bohemia region.
