Accommodation in Krumau
The historic center of Český Krumlov lies on the Vltava and was built around a 13th-century castle with Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque elements. It preserves an exceptionally well-preserved medieval architectural heritage that has survived more than five centuries of uninterrupted development.

Culture
The Český Krumlov castle complex includes a castle museum as well as a recently opened collection of carriages and sleighs in the stables. The Church of St. Vitus is a significant late Gothic building dating from 1407 to 1439 and features later alterations. Classical music concerts are occasionally held in the church.
The Český Krumlov Synagogue was built in 1909 by the local Jewish community and has an octagonal tower with restrained Neo-Romanesque elements. It is currently used as a meeting place and as a multifunctional cultural, artistic, and social space.
The Fotoateliér Seidel Museum displays an authentic collection of historical photographs, glass negatives, cameras, and darkroom equipment. In the historic studio, the museum regularly presents themed photographs. At the Egon Schiele Art Centrum, the room where Egon Schiele lived and worked in 1911 is open to the public. The Regional Museum in Český Krumlov displays a detailed ceramic model of the historic town center as well as a preserved interior of a Baroque Jesuit pharmacy.
Port 1560 is located in a comprehensively reconstructed former aristocratic brewery and offers four exhibitions on the themes of life, work, art, and dreams.
