Real Life Locations In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is easily one of the most immersive and historically accurate games ever made. Like its predecessor, it takes place in 1403 medieval Bohemia, all within the modern-day borders of Czechia. There are two maps that players can eventually travel between in KCD2, and both of these regions depict real locations.

The Best Games For Fans Of Medieval History

Whether it’s Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, For Honor, Crusader Kings 3, or more, fans have a lot of choices when it comes to medieval fantasy games.

Trosky Castle

The Ruins Can Be Visited During Certain Times Of The Year

Trosky Castle dominates the skyline of the first region in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, a constant reminder of where power is centered. Built on two volcanic peaks, this unique castle seems to defy the logistics of buildings, and thus players could be forgiven for thinking it is the product of imaginative game design.

Incredibly though, this is a real castle, and during certain parts of the year, it is open to the public for tours. It is unfortunately in ruins now, in fact, Trosky roughly translates to ruins, but it is nevertheless beautiful. The shells of the two towers still stand, with these being known as the Maiden and the Crone, or Panna and Baba in Czech. From such a vantage point, fans will have a fantastic view of the landscape, and they should be able to spot villages such as Troskovice, which they will know as Troskowitz in KCD2.

The Bohemian Paradise

The Unique Rock Structures Around Trosky Are Real

In the first part of KCD2, in the area around Trosky castle, players will spend countless hours running from bandits, hunting game, and searching for hermits in a landscape like no other. Here there are countless towers of unique sandstone rocks, known as the Prachov Rocks, all surrounded by rich woodland and a few stunning lakes and ponds.

This region is now known as Bohemian Paradise, or Cesky Raj, and is a protected natural area that can be visited. According to the devs, some of these strange but beautiful rock formations are even positioned in the game exactly as they are in the game. Unfortunately, visitors won’t be able to visit the helpful herbwoman, Bozhena.

The City Of Kuttenberg/Kutna Hora

Walk The Same Streets & Visit Iconic Buildings

To get the most out of their time in medieval Bohemia, players should try out these tips for immersion and roleplay in KCD2.

Kuttenberg, which is a German name, is now known as Kutna Hora and is a fantastic tourist destination in its own right, but especially for fans of this medieval masterpiece. While most of the wooden buildings have long been replaced and rebuilt, the general layout is almost exactly the same, especially in certain parts. Some stone structures, on the other hand, survive, especially churches and parts of the walls.

Sedlec Ossuary

A Church Containing Thousands Of Human Bones, Now Artfully Displayed

To the northeast of Kuttenberg, Henry will find a large monastery that will eventually open up with the Mysteria Ecclesiae DLC in the last quarter of 2025. However, there is also a small church in the middle of a vast and storied graveyard, just outside the monastery. This is Sedlec Ossuary.

Henry can enter this church and may be shocked to find thousands of human bones crammed into every corner. There is even a small side quest, given by a monk in the graveyard, to stack these bones into neat pyramids. While this may seem strange, this is a reference to the fact that in the 19th century, these bones were artfully arranged to decorate the church. For example, there is a chandelier made out of every bone in the human body. This makes Sedlec Ossuary one of the most unique tourist destinations in Europe.

The Italian Court

A Beautiful Palace & The Seat Of The Royal Mint

One thing KCD2 excels at is showing off the diversity of medieval Europe, especially within a rich and bustling city such as Kuttenberg. Throughout the game, Henry meets people from all over the continent and beyond and will hear a myriad of languages. One such language is Italian, which makes sense seeing there is an Italian Court in Kuttenberg.

Malesov Fortress

A Living Museum Of Sorts

A fair way through the story in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Henry will be tasked with breaking into Maleshov castle to rescue someone very important. They may also find Rosa’s book here. If players are wondering if this was a real castle, then the answer, as it almost always is in KCD2, is a resounding yes.

The main tower is also still standing today, although it seems to have received multiple renovations over the centuries. After falling into disrepair, however, one entrepreneur has thankfully restored much of the interior to some of its former glory. It’s now a great place to learn about and experience the Middle Ages and is only a short distance from Kutna Hora.
