We visited this castle in the afternoon for around 3 hours and went for the option of seeing tower and palace (full price of 170 CZK). We definitely recommed it!!! We very positively surprised how huge the castle is - but also it's in very good condition! Both guided tours were very interesting and the view from the tower amazing!!! If you are somewhere near this castle, it's worth a visit! ;-)
