About the venue: Krakovec Castle

The ruins of a Gothic castle built in 1381-1383 for Jíra z Roztok, a leading courtier of King Wenceslaus IV. The castle sits on a rocky spur above the confluence of two streams at the edge of the Křivoklátsko Protected Landscape Area. In character it was closer to a Gothic palace than a fortress - the residential wing had 27 rooms with underfloor heating. Jan Hus stayed here in 1414 before leaving for the Council of Constance. A lightning strike in 1783 caused a fire that left only the walls standing; the site has been a protected cultural monument since 1965, managed by the NPÚ. The castle hosts an annual Hus pilgrimage, theatre performances and concerts.
