Weekend trips:Kolštejn Castle - Hotel Chateau Goldenstein

The Renaissance hotel Chateau Goldenstein is located in the reconstructed castle Kolštejn in the heart of the Jeseníky Mountains. This historic castle offers unique accommodation with the atmosphere of ancient times, where romance, comfort and the charm of ancient stone walls are combined. The Renaissance castle Kolštejn was built in the 16th century by rebuilding the Gothic castle Goldek, which was built by the Wüstenhube family at the beginning of the 14th century on a hill in the mountain village later renamed Branná. During the 15th century the castle became a massive fortress, of which the perimeter wall, part of the western palace and the largely rebuilt great tower have survived to the present day.

During the Thirty Years' War Kolštejn played an important role in the defence of the imperial troops against the Swedish army, but then its importance gradually declined. In the 19th century, the building housed the princely brewery and later also a municipal school. During the first half of the 20th century the castle became the property of Branná, later it was owned by the state and by the end of the last century it was in danger of collapse due to its deplorable condition. Now the reconstructed castle offers a guided tour lasting approximately one hour.

Unique atmosphere, privacy, romance and tranquility in the middle of deep forests - all this awaits guests at the Chateau Goldenstein. At every turn, you will be impressed by the castle's 700-year history, where important noble families have taken turns. During the restoration of the monument, the owners have preserved its historic character and furnishings and adapted them to the needs of the guests. Behind the walls of the castle you will find every comfort. The interior of the hotel is furnished with attention to detail, each room is different and distinctive. You can spend the night in the Liechtenstein Wing, the Armourers' Room, the Tower, dine in the Knights' Hall or get married in the local chapel. The chateau's boutique hotel and restaurant, which offers accommodation for 77 people in 26 rooms, is ideal for romantic getaways, weddings and corporate events.
