Olomouc Castle (Olomoucký hrad)
Olomoucký kraj
Olomouc Castle (Czech: Olomoucký hrad) is one of the most important castle complexes in the Czech Republic, set on Wenceslas Hill in the historic city of Olomouc. The site is associated with a long-standing fortified presence in the city’s core. Historically, Olomouc had two castles referred to as the “Old” and the “New.” The “Old” castle stood at the location of today’s Villa Primavesi (Alley Street). Today, the castle complex is recognized for its national significance within the Czech cultural landscape. It has been protected as a National Cultural Monument since 1962. This designation was established by a government resolution and later referenced again in subsequent government regulation. As a landmark on Wenceslas Hill, the castle is closely tied to the historic urban fabric of Olomouc. Visitors come primarily for its importance as a heritage site and for its prominent setting within the city.
