  • 13 years ago
Take a tour of Orlik Castle in Czech Republic – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

The Orlik Castle outside of Prague basks in the sun while overlooking the peaceful Orlik Dam.

The origins of this glistening and beautiful castle date to the 13th century.

The castle unfortunately burned down several times throughout its existence but was rebuilt with new additions each time

The castle sat high on a hill until the dam, built in the mid 20th, century, flooded the valley below.

The castle is now a fascinating museum with many exceptional artifacts, weaponry, and decorations.

Even though this structure is only an hour away from the bustling city of Prague, its surroundings make it seem worlds away.
