On the right bank of the Vltava River in Prague's Troja district, lies a charming Baroque edifice that invites you to explore its history and beauty. The chateau is surrounded by an extensive garden with ornamental and fruit trees, where you will find a natural labyrinth, fountains, terracotta vases, and an orangery with busts of emperors. Its interiors conceal unique fresco decorations in the halls, which transport visitors to ancient times and lend the place an unmistakable atmosphere. The complex also includes farm buildings, and it once encompassed a vineyard with the Chapel of Saint Clare, now part of the adjacent Botanical Garden. Annually, from April to October, the Prague City Gallery prepares engaging seasonal exhibitions here, enriching the chateau's cultural offerings. This publicly accessible complex, located near the Prague Zoological Garden, is an ideal place for a peaceful stroll and discovering art.
