Helfštýn Castle

Helfštýn, (German: Helfenstein, Helfstein) is a castle 15 kilometres (9 mi) east of Přerov, in the Olomouc region in Central Moravia, Czech Republic. The history of Helfštýn is closely related to the development of the nearby town of Lipník nad Bečvou, which has a number of valuable architectural monuments, among them the classical château and one of the oldest late-gothic synagogues in the Czech Republic.

The ruins of the castle are perched on a high wooded knoll above the narrowest part of the Moravian Gate and above the left bank of the river Bečva. The complex is 187 metres (614 ft) long and up to 152 metres (499 ft) wide. It is one of the largest castles in terms of area in the Czech Republic.
