The Rotunda of Saint Catherine is one of the oldest surviving Romanesque structures in Czechia, dating from the 11th century. Its interior is adorned with remarkably well-preserved frescoes from the 12th century, including depictions of Christ, saints, and the Přemyslid dynasty. Visitors can admire the circular nave and apse while learning about the site's significance as a former castle chapel. The intimate scale and vivid medieval artistry make it a must-see for history and art enthusiasts.
