The second tour enters what Karlštejn was built to guard: the Church of Our Lady and the small Chapel of St Catherine, in the Marian Tower, and the staircase of the Great Tower, with wall paintings from the time of Charles IV. Groups are 16 people at most, it lasts a hundred minutes and booking is compulsory: buy your ticket on the castle website as soon as you have your date.
It runs from May to October. If you want to see everything, the castle also offers the complete three-hour tour, almost private (six people, 1,800 CZK per person), which goes up to the floors above the Chapel of the Holy Cross, normally closed.
