The ruin of a medieval castle built probably in the first half of the 14th century. A century later it was conquered by the king’s troops, plundered and left to decay. Today there is the torso of a tower – donjon, lower structures and walls.

<p><img class="alignleft" title="Eng" src="http://czcrush.com/flags/flag2.gif" alt="" width="50" height="30" /><strong>Castle Jenstejn.</strong> In the past this ruined castle was connected with Archbishop Jan of Jenštejn. Abandoned after 1583, the castle has gradually become dilapidated and it was not until 1977 that the structure was conserved and opened to the general public. A fine example of small, fortified medieval structures, Jenštejn boasts remarkably sophisticated architecture. The castle tower contains a chapel and a staircase leading to the top of the tower with a view of the area. There is a display dedicated to aerial archaeology and the history of Jenštejn Castle.</p>

<p><strong>Крепость Jenstejn (Йенштейн).</strong> Крепость была основана еще во времена Карла IV в 1341 году и разрушена в период 30-летней войны в 1640-м.  Дворец не сохранился, осталась одна башня и часть стен.

<p><strong>Michalovice</strong> <strong>castle </strong>is situated in the Jizera valley, close to Mladá Boleslav. This is a ruin of a gothic castle from the 13th century, which was abandoned in the 16th century. It has a characteristic sloping tower entitled Putna (tub), which was undermined during searching for treasures in the 19th century. The tower bears a plaque to commemorate the visit of poet K.H. Mácha.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">***</p>
<p>Almost on the outskirts of Mladá Boleslav, above a hamlet of the same name, you cannot miss huge ruins with a leaning tower called Putna. Founded after 1270, Markvartice Castle ceased to serve as a residence sometimes prior to the 16th century. The tower deflected from its vertical axis due to the activities of treasure hunters. Today the tower affords magnificent views of the Jizera Valley and across the northern part of the Mladá Boleslav area. The poet K. H. Mácha appreciated this when he visited the ruin in 1835.</p>

<p>Near Benátky nad Jizerou you can explore the ruins of Dražice Castle, which was completed by Jan IV of Dražice, Bishop of Prague, in the latter half of the 13th century. The bishop invited French master builders, who primarily used bricks for construction materials, to build his family seat. In 1424, under Aleš Škopek of Dubá, the castle was burnt to the ground. The destruction was completed by the forces of George of Poděbrady. The remains of a tower, with a chapel featuring parts of Gothic rosettes in its windows, and massive walls are the only remnants of this, once the most remarkable structure of its kind in the region.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2713" title="Mlada Boleslav" src="http://czcrush.com/blog/wp-content/mlada_boleslav.jpg" alt="Mlada Boleslav" width="315" height="221" /></p>
<p><img class="alignleft" title="Eng" src="http://www.czcrush.com/flags/flag2.gif" alt="" width="50" height="30" />The castle was built, at the end of the 10th century, by Boleslav I., the present form with preserved late-Gothic and Renaissance elements originates from the second half of the 18th century. The permanent museum expositions present chapters from the history of Mladá Boleslav and the surroundings, moreover, in the playroom the small and large visitors of the castle may have a game of a museum.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" title="Rus" src="http://www.czcrush.com/div2.gif" alt="" width="350" height="2" /></p>
<p><img class="alignleft" title="Rus" src="http://www.czcrush.com/flags/flag1.gif" alt="" width="50" height="30" />Замок стоит на месте, где прежде находилось крупное городище, бывшее в XI-XII веках административным и торговым центром района, расположенного вдоль реки Изеры. После 1320 года дворяне из Михаловиц здесь построили замок, который стал их фамильной резиденцией.</p>
<p> В XVI веке замок сильно пострадал от большого пожара и тогдашние владельцы младоболеславского имения Краиржи из Крайка осуществили обширные перестройки в стиле ренессанс. Позже замок сильно пострадал во время Тридцатилетней войны, когда его заняли и затем разрушили шведы. В конце XVII века разрушенный замок перешел во владение города, который был намерен его снести. В конце концов, это намерение не осуществилось, однако, объект пустовал до половины XVIII века, когда он был перестроен в казармы. Для военных целей замок был использован до конца 1952 года. В настоящее время в нем находится Музей младоболеславского района.</p>

<p><img class="alignleft" title="Eng" src="http://www.czcrush.com/flags/flag2.gif" alt="" width="50" height="30" />The Okor village is first mentioned in 1228 as a property of St George Monastery in Prague Castle (klášter sv. Jiří na Pražském hradě). A Gothic castle was built here in 1359 by a wealthy burgher of Prague&#8217;s Old Town Frantisek Rokycansky, what was quite unusual in those times, when most castles were built by noblemen.</p>
<p>In 15th and 16th centuries The Okor Castle was extended and rebuilt in the late Gothic (around 1494) and Renaissance (by the Martinic family around 1590) styles. In the 17th century the castle was owned by Jesuits, during the Thirty Year’s War it was heavily damaged and then restored in the Baroque style. After the Jesuit order was discontinued in Bohemia, the Okor castle was deserted in the late 18th century and quickly changed to ruins.</p>

<p><img class="alignleft" title="Rus" src="http://www.czcrush.com/flags/flag2.gif" alt="" width="50" height="30" />Этот замок в 1360 году построил богатый пражский мещанин Франтишек Рокыцанский, но с тех пор его два раза разрушали во время осады. Сначала гуситы, позже – воины, участвовавшие в Тридцатилетней войне. Последними Окорж попытались восстановить иезуиты, но вскоре орден покинул Чехию, и стены замка разобрали на строительный материал жители окрестных деревень. В 1921 году руина перешла в собственность государства. Отныне здесь проходят концерты и фестивали под открытым небом.</p>
<p>В ареале развалин замка доминирует характерная конструкция брусковой башни с остатками ранней готической часовни с полукруглым бастионом. В случае опасности территорию перед замком можно было затопить водой

<p><img class="alignleft" title="Eng" src="http://www.czcrush.com/flags/flag2.gif" alt="" width="50" height="30" /><strong>Divci Kamen.</strong> The name of the castle originated from the German word Stein &#8211; stone or castle and the word Maget (Mogt) &#8211; a girl or a maiden. The castle was called either the German word Maidstein (Menštejn) or the Czech juncture of words Dívčí Kámen (&#8221;Maiden&#8217;s Stone&#8221;) that is used up to the present day.</p>
<p>Within today&#8217;s castle ruins a hill-side habitation was spread. This habitation was settled during several primeval periods. The centre of the habitation was destroyed when the castle was built, only some remains on the north and the north-east slopes were preserved. At the turn of the earlier and middle Bronze Ages the fortified community was established there. It was protected with mound from better accessible sides.</p>
<p>The Gothic Dívčí Kámen castle was built during two stages. Between 1350 &#8211; 1360 the residential centre with a two floor north palace and the walls around were built. The eastern palace, the third floor of the northern palace with chapel and stone wall of the extramural settlement were built before 1383. At the first half of the 15th century the extramural settlement was extended on the north side to the eastern palace tower and it was fortified with two prismatic bastions. The castle was composed of three parts &#8211; the residential castle itself, the upper barbican and extramural settlement, &#8220;latrán&#8221; (a lateral long street leading to a town) built later on the south. The Dívčí Kámen castle was a typical example of the Gothic castle architecture at the times of the emperor Karel IV. The residential centre of the castle was made of two three floor palaces that contained a regular courtyard in their closed sides. Three rooms with the wooden ceiling and the windows situated at the courtyard were on each of the floors &#8211; ground floor and two upper floors of the palace. On the third floor of the northern palace there was only one hall with windows also in the external wall and with the arch on the northern part, which opened to the bay chapel. The way to the castle ran through three castle gates.</p>
<p>Today the Dívčí Kámen castle with its 210 metres of length and 45 metres of width is one of the biggest castle ruins in Bohemia. Parts of the walls of the upper and lower castle and also parts of the castle fortification were preserved.</p>

<p><img class="alignleft" title="Rus" src="http://www.czcrush.com/flags/flag1.gif" alt="" width="50" height="30" />Руины замка <strong>Дивчи Камен</strong> расположены около деревни Трисова в 9 км к северо-востоку от Чешски Крумлова. В старину высокий скалистый холм, на котором стоял замок, был  заперт водами реки Влтавы. Затем воды реки оступили от замка и открыли его вход &#8211; правда, разумеется, в настоящее время замку едва ли угрожают войны и надобности в такой естсественной защите нет. Название замка происходит от немецких слов Stein &#8211; камень и устаревшего Maget (девушка). Замок называли или по-немецки &#8211; Maidstein &#8211; или чешским переводом тех же самых слов: <strong>Дивчи Камен</strong> (&#8221;Камень Девы&#8221;), который и используется до настоящего времени.</p>
<p>Внутри территории замка археологи нашли руины множества домов, построенных на склонах холма еще первобытными людьми. Место это было традиционно обжитое: люди здесь селились не только в каменном веке, но и вплоть до самой постройки зама, когда создававшие его князья попросту выгнали крестьян из расположенной здесь деревушки. Крестьянские жилища сохранились только на северо-восточных склонах холма. И еще в раннем Бронзовом веке здесь находилось укрепление, созданное древними славянами. Оно было защищено насыпью со всех сторон. Готический Дивчи Камен относительно молод &#8211; его строили, начиная с 14-го века. Сперва (между 1350 &#8211; 1360) был построен жилой центр с двухэтажным Северным  дворцом. Восточный, трехэтажный дворец с часовней и каменными стенами, оградившими замок от проникновения извне, был построен до 1383 г. В первой половине 15-ого столетия укрепления были расширены на северной стороне и усилены двумя призматическими башнями. Замок состоял из трех частей &#8211; жилой дворец, барбикан (сторожевая башня) и укрепления внешней стены, так называемый &#8220;латрон&#8221;, боковая длинная улица, ведущая в город, построенный позже. Дивчи камен &#8211; блестящий образец готической архитектуры времен знаменитого императора Карла IV. Между двумя дворцами помещался закрытый внутренний двор. На каждом из этажей  этих дворцов было по три комнаты с деревянным потолком и окнами. На третьем этаже северного дворца был только один зал с окнами во внешней стене и с аркой, смотрящей на север, которая открывалась к часовне. Путь к замку охраняли трое мощных ворот. Сегодня Дивчи камен( 210 метрами длины, 45 метров ширины) &#8211; один из самых больших замков в Богемии, пусть и не полностью сохранийся.</p>
<p>Четверо сыновей Петра I (не русского царя, а курляндского герцога фон Розенберга), Петр, Йошт, Олдрич и Януарий попросили у императора разрешения на постройку замка. Император Карль IV дал им 1 июля 1349 г. разрешение &#8220;строить в чешском Королевстве замок, названный на чешском языке Дивчи Камен и укреплять его стенами, рвами, башнями и другими фортификациями&#8221;. Замок возвели в рекордные сроки &#8211; прямо как высотки в современной Москве. Замок стал главной крепостью семьи фон Розенбергов. Во время конфликта между чешской аристократией и королем Вацлавом IV в 1394 замок стал &#8220;местом отсидки&#8221; для заключенного сюда короля.</p>
<p>В начале 16-ого столетия роль замка как крепости постепенно уменьшилась. Расходы по его содержанию и обслуживанию были слишком высоки, и это было причиной, почему Петр IV фон  Розенберг решил не содержать замок долее. Из  вывезли всю мебель и убранство, и более в нем никто никогда не жил. Сами Розенберги переселились в Чешска Крумлов. Ущерб покинутому замку нанесли местные фермеры, разворовавшие камни его кладки для своих домов. Однако внушительные и неплохо сохранившиеся руины возвышаются над местностью до сих пор.</p>
