The Castle Museum is located in the Little Castle or „Hrádek", which is the oldest part of the castle complex. The castle chambers, normally featured in a castle tour, are presented here in an elegant combination with museum exhibits. The exhibition is topped off with an ascent to the Castle Tower where you can enjoy not only a breathtaking view onto the Old Town, but also a look into the castle moat below where bears have been bred for centuries.
A rich array of valuable exhibits on the history of Český Krumlov and its surroundings await you in the Regional Museum, located in the newly-reconstructed Baroque building of the former Jesuit High School. The Museum also features a detailed ceramic model of the Old Town, the largest such model of its kind in the world.
The unique secessionist building that houses the Seidel Photographic Studio tells the story of the beginnings of professional photography and of the local pioneers of photography. Visitors are shown a glimpse of the life of the town and its inhabitants one hundred years ago through the vast works of two generations of photographers.
