Hrad Křivoklát
Some shots of the 'interior'. Photography wasn't allowed in any of the rooms however. This irked me, especially since there was a chapel with a beautiful gothic altarpiece, and another room with some 15th/16th century paintings and sculpture. And a library to die for - at one point it was the 3rd largest collection in Bohemia.
These forests used to be a favored hunting area for the local aristocracy.
I'm embarrassed to say that I didn't write down who this person is. I can only remember that it was some prince or another. One of the Fürstenbergs maybe?
A local cat, and quite possibly the largest slug in the world. Largest I've ever seen, at any rate.
