What your ticket includes
According to the Hrady CZ website (Admission page, version from May 2026), the Saturday festival wristband also served as a ticket for a castle tour, which was free for festival visitors. The website does not say which tour or route this is for each individual castle. The weekend pass is valid for Friday and Saturday; the website does not explicitly state whether the Saturday part of the pass gives the same entitlement.

Open the guide ↗About the castle
- The castle was built by King Wenceslas IV after the nearby lower castle of Žebrák, barely 500 m away, burned down in 1395. (hrad-tocnik.cz)
- King Wenceslas IV was already staying here in 1398. (hradycz.cz)
- Točník and Žebrák form a unique pair of castles in Bohemia, standing on the same hill and built by the same patron. (pamatkovykatalog.cz)
- The Great Hall on the 2nd floor of the hall building measured 34 × 15 m and surpassed the largest halls of the time, such as the hall at Karlštejn (22 × 8.5 m). (hrad-tocnik.cz)
- The castle was never taken from outside. It was destroyed from within by local people who had taken refuge there from the Swedes during the Thirty Years' War. (hrad-tocnik.cz)
- In 1425 the Kolowrats withstood a three-day siege by a Hussite army of almost eight thousand men. (hrad-tocnik.cz)
