From our history: ⚜ On August 1, 1631, the Jicin Chamber "orders the governor of the Skala and Semily estates to send one kiln of the Tatobit white lime to the local Office for plastering the Tower - as soon as possible." ⚜ On October 3, 1631, the Jicin Chamber sent a decree "to the Purkmister and the Office of the Jicin council to hasten the repair of the Tower by the next Wednesday, for His Grace (Albrecht Wenzel Eusebius von Wallenstein), will arrive to Jitcin on Sunday." ⚜ On July 14, 1649, the governor of the manor orders that "the municipality immediately pick up (complete) the Tower, without excuses and delays!" ⚜ On the next day, July 15, the municipality replies, "that it acknowledges this need and obligation, but asks that it receives some amount from the manor’s pensions for it; when better times come, they will repay it."

Guest Opinions


Naprosto jedinečné ubytování! Na romantický pobyt jsem prozatím nenarazil na stylovější ubytování. Ve spojitosti s naprostým soukromím mohu jen doporučit.


Der Turm ist eine äußerst extravagante Unterkunft. Im "Prinzessinnenbett" lässt es sich süß träumen. Insgesamt eine außergewöhnliche Erfahrung.


Ideal place for romantic getaway. Beautifully restored historic building with great touches. Good selection of wines in the cellar.


Romantisch verblijf. Een uniek verblijf in een oude toren. Zeer stijlvol ingericht. Echte privacy!!!
