The Zamecka zahrada (Castle Gardens) behind Cesky Krumlov Castle is a 17th-century Baroque formal garden with free entry and significantly fewer visitors than the castle itself. It contains a unique revolving open-air auditorium, one of the rarest surviving examples of Baroque theatrical engineering, used during the summer Baroque Theater Festival. The upper terrace offers a strong view back over the castle and town. Access is through the castle courtyard; open April-October. Allow 30-45 minutes.
