Za trnkou

Accommodation with a view of the castle - we know. Accommodation with a view of two castles? Yes, even such a luxurious location is in our slow portfolio. The magical area of Křivoklátsko is teeming with castles and chateaux! And also beautiful nature and mysterious legends. Maringotka Za trnkou is located near Točník and Žebrák castles. It is not usual for two large and important castles to stand so close to each other, but they are separated by only half a kilometer. The beggar is the older one. It was founded in the second half of the 13th century by the family of Zajíc. Its builders could not agree on the name of the new castle, so they decided to name it after the first visitor. Unfortunately for them, he was a jerk begging for alms. Its convenient location between Prague and Nuremberg was liked by both John of Luxembourg and especially Wenceslas IV, who lived his hunting passion here to the fullest. He had the originally small castle rebuilt into a luxurious residence, but it was destroyed by fire in 1396. And so Wenceslas IV. decided to build a new, better castle, but still close enough to his beloved Krivoklat woods. And so Točník grew up on the hill. Wenceslas IV. he hid a large part of the state treasure in it. And part of it is said to have been hidden by the fox somewhere in the castle before his death, so that his brother Zikmund, the red fox, would not find it. He didn't find it. And dozens of other treasure hunters were not so lucky either. But of course you try it too. It is said that it may be in the Black Lake under the eastern walls of Točník. If you see a black fish here, do not catch it or eat it, because it is not just an ordinary fish, but the soul of one of the dead, imprisoned in the Žebrák castle. But you don't have to look for treasures. You don't even have to go anywhere. You can do absolutely anything you want here in Maringotka Za trnkou. Because what happens in the undercastle stays in the undercastle…
