The Romanesque-Gothic castle was built in the 2nd half of the 12th century by Vladislav II as a border guard.

Documents first mention Loket in 1234. The stone castle used to be dated to the reign of the King Premysl Otakar I (1197-1230); with the finding of a Romanesque chapel dates it to the 1170's. Charles IV. in a civil charter, entitled "Maiestas Carolina", named Loket among the towns inalienable from the Czech Crown. Loket is the key to the Kingdom of Bohemia.
