Štramberk Castle (Trúba Tower)
Highlight • Castle
It is not known by whom and when the castle was founded, but in the middle of the 14th century. she was sovereign property. In 1380 the Lords of Kravaře owned the castle, later the owners quickly changed hands. The core of the castle was formed by a small courtyard with a keep that was 40 m high. At that time there was a large residential building here (today there is a wooden hut of MUDr. A. Hrstka on this place). The building was rebuilt as a Renaissance chateau by the lords of Žerotín. In the memorandum of 1787 we can read: Around 1782 the Štramberk Castle began to be destroyed and demolished, beautiful and large rooms and walls were damaged". And so today we have only a part of the castle walls and the Trúba Tower, which was expanded in 1903 as a lookout tower.
