Bečov nad Teplou – A Hidden Czech Gem (60 min.)

Nestled in a green valley of western Bohemia, Bečov nad Teplou is a small town with a big treasure. Its highlight is the Bečov Castle and Chateau, dramatically rising above the Teplá River. Inside, visitors can admire one of the most valuable medieval artifacts in Europe – the Reliquary of St. Maurus, a golden Romanesque masterpiece hidden for centuries and rediscovered only in 1985.

Beyond the reliquary, the castle complex itself is a delight, blending Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque architecture. Walking through its historic halls and beautifully restored interiors feels like traveling through time. From the castle terraces, guests are rewarded with breathtaking views of the surrounding forested hills and the picturesque town below.

Bečov nad Teplou is not only about history but also about atmosphere. Its peaceful streets, charming square, and natural setting make it a perfect stop for travelers seeking both culture and relaxation. It is one of those rare places where history, art, and nature meet in perfect harmony.

Bamberg – A City Built on Seven Hills (60 min.)

Bamberg, often called the “Franconian Rome,” is one of Germany’s most beautiful historic cities. Built on seven hills, each crowned with a church, Bamberg’s old town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site full of charm and history. Visitors can stroll through winding cobblestone streets, admire half-timbered houses, and discover the famous Altes Rathaus (Old Town Hall), dramatically standing in the middle of the river Regnitz.

The city’s cathedral, Bamberger Dom, is a masterpiece of medieval architecture, home to the mysterious Bamberg Rider statue and the tombs of emperors and popes. Just a short walk away lies the New Residence, with stunning baroque rooms and rose gardens offering panoramic views of the city.

Bamberg is also famous for its unique beer culture. The city is home to several traditional breweries, and its specialty, smoked beer (Rauchbier), offers a taste experience you won’t find anywhere else. With its mix of history, architecture, and tradition, Bamberg feels like stepping into a fairytale.
