There are a lots of interesting places around to visit, not just the Kašperk castle…

Approximately 400 metres east of the castle there are remnans of a small fortress called „Pustý hrádek“. The fortress was built in the 15th centrury. This place is located higher than the castle (924 metres above sea level) so that's why it offers you one of the most beautiful views of the Kašperk castle and surrounding countryside.

A small lovely town Kašperské Hory is located in the vally. The town has preserved its uniqueness – historic charm including many interesting historical monuments. You can visit for example The Church of St. Margareth and a historical building of Town Hall on the square, The Church of St. Nicholas or The Church of the Holy Virgin Mary.
