Český Krumlov (Czech pronunciation: [ˈtʃɛskiː ˈkrumlof]; German: Krummau an der Moldau or Böhmisch Krummau; Krumau; English: Crumlaw; Bohemian Crumlaw) is a small city in the South Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic where Český Krumlov Castle is located. Old Český Krumlov is a UNESCO World Heritage Site[3] and was given this status along with the historic Prague castle district.

The city is named Český Krumlov ("Bohemian Crumlaw") to differentiate it from Moravský Krumlov in the southeast of the country.

...

Český Krumlov Castle is unusually large for a town of Krumlov's size; within the Czech Republic it is second in extent only to the Hradčany castle complex of Prague. It dates back to 1240 when the first castle was built by the Witigonen family, the main branch of the powerful Rosenberg family.
