The Bohemian Paradise is also known for its variety of historic sights. The area is literally filled with castles, rock strongholds, chateaux and palatial residences of prominent aristocratic families. Some remained practically unchanged up to the present, the other disappeared and their original location can be visible just because of tiny marks in the bedrock.
