More than 5 million visitors to heritage sites

Over five million tourists will have visited the castles, stately homes, and other monuments managed by the National Heritage Institute this year, the organisation announced. That is a record since 2009, when the body began calculating attendances according to current methods. The biggest draw over the year was Český Krumlov with around 395,000 visitors. Last year the institute announced attendance for 2014 of 4.8 million.
