Bezděz: Hrad, který se obrátil proti vlastnímu králi

Explore the dark history of Bezděz Castle, one of the most significant Gothic fortresses in Central Europe. Built as an impregnable royal residence, it paradoxically became a high-security prison for the 7-year-old King of Bohemia, Wenceslaus II. In this documentary, we analyze the defensive architecture that made this castle nearly impossible to conquer or escape from. Discover how the massive walls, the Great Tower, and the strategic location on a volcanic hill turned a royal palace into a stone cage. While Queen Kunigunde managed to escape using a clever trick, the young king remained trapped. Join us as we uncover the secrets of this medieval "stone trap" and its role in the chaotic history of the Kingdom of Bohemia. #Castle #MedievalHistory #Fortress #GothicArchitecture #History #MiddleAges #Bohemia #Documentary #Medieval #KingdomOfBohemia
