What’s next?

You’ll find plenty of entertainment around the recreation area as well. Just a stone’s throw away is the Bezděz Castle Ruins, closely associated with Czech King Přemysl Otakar II and poet Karel Hynek Mácha, who captured the local landscape in several of his works. At the foot of the castle lies one of the branches of the Muzeum Mladoboleslavska – Muzeum Podbezdězí, which offers an interactive introduction to the entire region.
