The story

You're standing at Český Šternberk Castle, high above the Sázava river. Take a look at the steep granite cliff it sits on. Below lies the little market town of the same name, about forty kilometres southeast of Prague. This is one of the best preserved Gothic castles in Bohemia. And here's the remarkable part: it was built, named and is still owned by the same family.
