There is not a lot of information about this particular castle. Though I don't know if it is simply because nobody has taken the time or if there is not much information available. More sources and more info is needed.
What is there is relevant and simply put. It is also a very neutral article, no bias. The links work. This is a part of the WikiProject Czech Republic. It is categorized as a stub.

Bokddaan (talk) 07:47, 6 December 2018 (UTC)Overview is the first thing we read. It seems to be good and gives the most important information about the architect. Briefly creates an idea about who he was and his achievements. I do feel satisfied. Although, the part about "love of his life" is not really necessary. Talking about structure, I would divide "Life" by several subdivisions like "early years", "family life", "education", "achievements in architecture". Also, I would add more information to every subdivision because as a reader I want to know more. Seems to me, there is a lot can be added. Nothing is really off-topic. I think the article does not draw conclusion and does not trying to convince me in anything. I have not found any words that would be unnatural. None of claims on behalf of unnamed groups or people were found by me. The article does not really focus neither on positive or negative information. It just reveals some facts from life of an architect. Unfortunately, I didn't find any resources. Neither journals nor textbooks. I am afraid that it could be presented inaccurately.
