Ruins of Hřídelík Castle

            Hřídelík was a rockcliff castle built on a massive sandstone rock around 1292 by the bishop of Prague. It served for control of the county owned by the church, and priests sentenced to jail were held here. Last mention is from 1395, when it had to become a Dominican monastery, as a catholic strongpoint the castle was destroyed in the Hussite wars after 1420. Around 1830 the bishop of Litoměřice had a small brick castle built in the ruins, but it did not survive for long (rermains are still visible, like the brick stairs above the underground entrance). The walls and a palace were build on a high rock, and were accessible over a retractable bridge, there was also a second, smaller fortification on the neighbouring rock. The inside of the ruins is accessible through an undeground  tunnel, which leads through the rock and into an old cellar.
