Krivoklat Castle | Daytrip from Prague
Vložit
- čas přidán 30. 07. 2024
- Today we will travel 60 km west from Prague to visit a castle that was used as a prison. Many interesting prisoners were kept within its walls, even the famous emperor and Bohemian king Charles IV. But probably the most famous prisoner was an English alchemist Edward Kelley and it is his story that Valery will tell you today.
Getting to Krivoklat is pretty easy. Take a train from Prague's main train station or Smichovske nadrazi to Beroun and there change to a small train to Krivoklat. Make sure to get on the correct train when changing - either ask the conductor which platform it goes from or quickly check the board in the station building.
For more information on how to visit Krivoklat castle visit the official website of Krivoklat: www.hrad-krivoklat.cz/en/plan...
BE AWARE that on Monday the castle is usually closed. #alchemy #castle #czechrepublic #realpragueguides

Very much enjoyed the history tour. Real Prague Guides takes it to another level with Valery, history with a smile :)
Thanks for including a Blooper Reel!
This was your best video, Valery: informative, creative, witty, believable, friendly...with wasps...ouch.
5:44 this tactic they made aldo in Greek train's. They use to put buses in some places. That make people upset and in some years will stop use the trsin system. Then some private buses will come and tradition train moving in Czech will kaput. So be aware and start asking for more and more Train!!! Protect the cheapest safest and coolest way to comote in the country.
Amazing video one more time
Those buses are there only because of track repairs.
Amazing video thanks valery for Historical place. Valery you also looking smart in the video because you are walking during visiting. Much more love and prayers for you
Its admirable how much effort you put into your videos! :) Good job.
Thanks for noticing our effort. We'll it's fun for us to make these ❤️
I went to this castle in 2011. It was very interesting. The funniest thing was the warnings at the tourist place and the guide, both saying, "no pictures," but as soon as we got inside almost everyone started to take pictures. I couldn't believe it. I even took some because it was really interesting inside. I liked the video a lot and look forward to watching other videos. This was the first of your videos I saw.
Thanks!!!
Very nice....
Thanks, very nice seeing something a bit away from Charles bridge and Prague castle!
Great castle tour - many thanks!
First syllable of the Castle name's a real tongue twister thanks to that r hachek. :(
Hope there's video for Pernštejn and/or Bouzov Castles some time in the future - paid only if necessary. :)
Hah, okay, you keep insisting 😎 maybe it will happen
Your hair looks nice today Valerino.
What a sympathetic 'Ha' from the cameraman! 😊
And I would love to read a novel depicting these events. But some novels are simply boring and some are a bit unintelligent. The best ones (imo) have an interesting plot and are cleverly written. Like the old masters used to do, as Stevenson. Or Gaiman nowadays. But it's very rare.
Rant, rant..
And quite an interesting video, as always! 👋
Prisoner of Zenda would fit right in to Krivoklat castle. It would even be the right place for it, as it is due south from Dresden by railway.
@@stroke_of_luck 👍
Great little documentary, thanks!!! 👍 👍 👍
Wonderful castle!
Very interesting Video! Nice to see that castle again. I Was there long ago with my parents on a holiday Trip in the 80's.
Excellent video, & very entertaining as I expect. I can't wait until you go to Spain to show us the birthplaces & places of learning, of Picaso, Denmark, for Hans Christian Andersen, Italy, for Leonardo Di Vinci, Austria, for Gustav Mahler, Germany, for Richard Wagner, Poland, for Capernicus, & Romania, for Vlad, (Dracula). again, you present very informative videos.
We were just in Prague last week. Prague is a great city to visit. We even did a tour with these guys. No, no Valerie on the day we went. Instead our guide was Vaclav. I told him I was a subscriber and complimented him on how well these video's are edited. Another great job on this video!
If your guided tours are as fun as your videos, I really hope to hire you next year. I just need to bring some group with me 🤔 😃
Your production values are growing fast, nice narrative and continuity. Educational AND funny!
Thanks!
Such a beautiful old castle. Great video Valerie!! 😊
Thanks!
Finally ! Ahoj Valery ! Great story.
Thoroughly enjoyed another one of your video tours. You are very entertaining as well as informative. And, so cute too.
Thanks!
Terrific tour. Beautiful castle. Such awful history.
Thanks Steven! Hope all is good!
Valery, you do a good job. You are both informative and entertaining. And, of course, velmi pěkná.
Thank you for this informative tour of this beautiful castle. To me, it looks like a gem, situated on a hill, surrounded by forests.
Not speaking the language reminds me of playing hockey (in the US Navy) with Soviet Airborne back in 1991. I didn't know any Russian then, but knew a few Slovak words.
I tried to get them to pay attention & do their jobs by repeating "Rabota".
They fell over laughing, Finally one of them taught me one of my 1st Russian words. "Davai".
ps the food looks excellent.
Great video and information, in spite of determined wasp attacks!
Another great video, Valery! You are a real "superstar!" Seriously, I really enjoyed this video. It was quite interesting, and your historical overview was excellent! Aloha today from Waikoloa, Hawai'i.
Je to skvělé 🔥🔥🔥
GREAT SHOW! It's amazing how many castles are around there and big ones too. They seemed to be well built for stress also considering it was crooked. Can't wait for the next video!!!
Vtipné a hezké.
Děkuji.😀💓😀
Děkujeme!
Congratulations on 10,000+ subscribers!! Very well-deserved!!!
Thank you!
Beautiful place and guide! Great job, Valerie. Fun and informative :)
Thx!
Very beautiful country i must visit sometime
Great job! Thank you very much for your videos.
Thanks for watching!!!
You had to take a bus instead of train to KRIVOKLAT ,because they were replacing old rail tracks right behind my house in Beroun :-)))) Krivoklat is my favourite ...true Gothic ,very romantic and good beer BAKALAR in the tavern :-)))
Yep, it was a pity because the train ride from Beroun is very scenic.
Damn wasps! 🦟 Thanks guys! 😎
Valery you you should come to New Zealand and be a guide here lol..
That was worth the wait. I'm sorry you were having CZcams difficulties. Thanks for showing your lunch.
Thanks for watching Chris!
@@RealPragueGuides RPG! Bursting on the scene and wiping out misinformation and ignorance. Sorry, here in the US an RPG is a Rocket Propelled Grenade.
@@chrishutchison5031 can we use this as our motto? 🤣
@@RealPragueGuides YES, I would be honored
You ar the best 😊
The coin minting was cool!
You can try it for really cheap there!
Regarding 'king bene' Wladislav Yagiello: Wladislaw in fact spoke Czech language. (Plus: note that he was Polish, and 500 years ago Czech and Polish languages did not differ as much as they differ now. And even now Pole can sort of understand Czech if he/she tries hard. So 50h years ago, Wladislaw would have no problem understanding even if he did not learn Czech;)
The reason why he was called 'king bene' - he was a weak king with powers severely limited by aristocracy and towns. So he did not have much choice other than to consent to any requests by powerful aristocracy and towns. Hence 'King Bene'
Valery, you keep surprising me over and over.
Nice said. I have enjoyed your video.
Couple of years ago, I took my son to Konopiste, he did a school assignment for his history class there.
Did you do Konopiste ???
Not yet! But will definitely do in the future!
If one can't speak another language doesn't mean that one is an idiot, IMHO
