Turnov combines the practical character of a regional town with the sandstone country of the Bohemian Paradise in a way that reflects its position on the Jizera River in northeastern Bohemia. The town stands close to the rock formations, woodland and historic castles of the Český ráj Protected Landscape Area, a region long associated with walking and climbing. Turnov is also one of Czechia’s principal centres for gemstone cutting and jewellery, particularly work with Czech garnets. The Museum of the Bohemian Paradise preserves collections devoted to the region’s geology, crafts and history, while Hrubý Rohozec Château rises above the Jizera nearby.
