Cheb - Castle
|
|
Looking out over the Elbe River are the remains of the old Cheb Castle (Chebsky hrad). Built by Emperor Frederick Barbarossa in the 12th Century this former royal palace is now little more than a ruin. The highlights of the Romanesque Cheb Castle include the chapel of St Erhard and St Ershula with Gothic and Romanesque capitals and the volcanic stone Black Tower.
