Mihulka Powder Tower
(Czech: Věž Mihulka)
Mihulka Powder Tower was the largest of the cannon towers; however, its defence qualities were never tested. It was built at the end of the 15th century as part of the new castle fortifications.
During the time of Rudolf II, an alchemist’s laboratory was located here; later it was a gunpowder store and a dungeon. Today it houses a permanent exhibition about the Castle Guard.
