Czech Gothic Trail

The Czech Republic has the largest concentration of castles and chateaux per square kilometer in Europe. Ride past royal residences, precious churches and traditional,
vernacular buildings. Pernstejn is one of the most beautiful, medieval castles in the country. The Church of St. Barbora is a jewel in Late Gothic architecture. The Church of St. John of Nepomuk is the masterwork of its architect, Giovanni Santini. The villages of
