This unique museum in Bohemia and perhaps even in Europe is located in the Zručský dvůr area, just a few steps from the castle. It presents the history of boating in Bohemia.
The Eagle's Nest offers a beautiful view of the confluence of two rivers - the Vltava and the Sázava.
The history of Kácov is connected with the local chateau, originally a Baroque fortress, built in 1723-1733 by Princess Anna Maria Franziska of Tuscany. In 1918, the castle became the property of the state, and in 2008 the town became its owner. The castle is currently closed and undergoing reconstruction.
There is an interesting exhibition of medieval weapons inside the former headquarters. Each floor of the tower is interactive and playfully introduces children to the history of the building, period tools and weapons reminiscent of the castle's defence in the Middle Ages. From the crown of the 20-metre high tower, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the entire castle grounds of Zruč.
The early Gothic castle from the middle of the 13th century stands on a steep rock promontory, bordered by the right bank of the Sázava River and the Olešený Brook. Probably a wooden fortress stood here earlier to protect the Sázava merchant trail, which was connected to Haberská. The original castle with its tower, eastern palace and parkings, was gradually added to in the course of centuries in late Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque style - up to its present form.
