It took about 10 years of work for an enthusiastic pensioner, Mr. Procházko, to build the castle with his own hands, which gives the impression of a historical ruin.
The idea was born in 1975, when Mr. Procházka, as an enthusiastic mushroom picker, began to notice the half-demolished stone walls in the surroundings, which were once built by local farmers. He wanted to build on their legacy, and so in 1982, he began bringing hundreds and hundreds of buckets of stones to the site of the planned construction. Today, dozens of curious day-trippers come to the stone rotunda to see the unusual feat. Thanks to this fact and Mr. Procházka's surname, which in the German infinitive sounds like "spazieren", the castle is nicknamed Špacírštejn.
