Que faire à Turnov

Turnov Essentials

Turnov serves as the central hub of the Bohemian Paradise region, defined by its historic architecture and proximity to the Hruboskalsko rock city. The town is famous for its centuries-old tradition of garnet cutting and jewelry making, showcased at Galerie Granát. Key landmarks include the Gothic Valdštejn Castle, the Empire-style Church of St. Francis of Assisi, and a rare surviving North Bohemian synagogue. Nearby, the ruins of Kozlov and various scenic viewpoints like Raisova vyhlídka offer perspectives of the Jizera River valley and surrounding sandstone landscapes.
