Ostrava was and still is primarily an industrial city. Although many people tend to condemn this city in the sense that there is nothing going on and nothing to see, it can often surprise.
In February, for example, a travelling exhibition arrived at the Silesian Ostrava Castle - Czech Crown Jewels within reach.
Yes - Ostrava also has its castle. Originally a Gothic castle from the 13th century, it was converted into a Renaissance castle in the 16th century. The castle was largely devastated after World War II and not much of it has survived. In 1998, the city of Ostrava used its pre-emption right and acquired the castle into its possession and extensive reconstruction took place. Thus, Silesian Ostrava Castle became a popular tourist destination in Ostrava.
My family and I took advantage of the good weather and went to the castle to see the copies of the crown jewels.
The author of these replicas is one of the best Czech and European goldsmiths - Jiří Urban.

And I will offer a few more photos of the castle.
