Loket
Czechia
Loket Castle, a Gothic fortress dating to the 12th century, rises on a rocky spur above a meander of the Ohře River in this modest Bohemian town in the Karlovy Vary Region. The historic centre is protected as an urban monument reservation, and the town sits at the edge of the Slavkovský les highlands, with cafés and restaurants in its compact core. The wider region is ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
