During European Heritage Days, the castle administration regularly opens normally inaccessible areas to visitors in Hluboka nad Vltavou, Czech Republic, September 16, 2023. This year the public can view the Vltava Castle Waterworks, which underwent a very demanding renovation in 2020 to 2021. The history of the waterworks dates back to the first half of the 16th century, when wooden water pumps pushed water into the then castle. The building of the current waterworks dates from the 18th century, and the Francis turbines that pump the Vltava water to the castle today date from 1908. (CTK Photo/
