Chateau Lány

Rebuilt by the Wallenstein family in 1730. In 1747-52 to the residential part attached a self-standing chapel. In the 19th century in the period of the Fürstenberg family it was enlarged. In 1929, already as a state-owned chateau (since 1918) Josip Plečnik rebuilt it into a summer residence of the president T.G.Masaryk. The chateau park, founded in 1770, adjusted according to the design by J.Plečnik and the chateau chapel, decorated with sculptures by J.Jelínek and woodcarvings by J.F.Platzer, are accessible to the public.

Nelahozeves Chateau

The Nelahozeves Chateau, with interiors richly decorated with frescoes, is among the most beautiful Renaissance buildings in the Czech Republic. It also includes a museum and gallery with the exhibition “Private Spaces: A Noble Family at Home”, which examines the lifestyle of the noble Lobkowicz family in the 19th century. This family has played a major role in the history of Central Europe for more than 600 years and also boasted the title of prince of the Holy Roman Empire. They were patrons of science and of artists such as Ludwig van Beethoven, among others.
