Hluboka Castle and Cesky Krumlov

Excursion in Cesky Krumlov

Duration : Full-day trip Languages: English, French, Russian

  Travelling through the beautiful south Bohemia countryside, you will arrive at Hluboka Chateau, which was rebuilt in the spirit of the romantic English Gothic style, based on royal Windsor Castle. It was the wish of the countess Elizabeth Schwarzenberg. who was invited in 1837 at the Queen Victoria's coronation to England and had the opportunity to see the Royal Castle. After the arrival to Hluboka, she persuadated her husband to reconstruct their palace into the castle seen in Windsor. In the Czech state it is a rare example of the English architecture.
  Inside there are magnificent collections of furniture, tapestries, porcelain, paintings and weapons. Mainly all wooden details worth admiring. It is one of the richest and nicest Czech castles, visited by thousands of tourists each year.
  After visiting the Hluboka Castle you will be taken to the second most visited town in the Czech Republic, magic and fabulous city of Cesky Krumlov, situated nearby Czech borders. This town has always the atmosphere of ancient centuries, each house in the city centre reminds the fame and splendour of Renaissance period. Don't miss it! In the city centre there are only houses with a rich and beautiful decoration on facades, narrow medieval streets full of picturesque shops and restaurants, interesting art galleries where you can find charming old pictures made during the last centuries. In the world there is not so many towns with such authentic atmosphere!
  Cesky Krumlov was put on the UNESCO List of World Cultural Heritage in 1992. You have to slacken the pace, to choose any small terrace or romantic restaurant garden by the Vltava river and to enjoy the moment. You will not regret!
  Note: In winter, when the Hluboka Castle is closed, instead of it, you will visit the small Holasovice village nearby Hluboka. It is the typical vilage in the rural Baroque style, which is on the UNESCO Heritage List too. You can take nice romantic pictures of local coloured houses around a charming pond.
