Ruins of Rokštejn Castle, Bohemian-Moravian Highlands, Moravia (Czech Republic)
This romantic ruin can be found in the middle of the woods. Once upon a time it was an important strategic place. The castle belonged alternately to the king and the local nobility. There was also a robber knight.
The glory of the castle ended with the spread of gunpowder. The castle was conquered and destroyed at the beginning of the Hussite Wars. (After 1420.)
