You can celebrate the festival of spring in a truly original way in the Czech Republic – how about enjoying Easter in a castle or a chateau? From 1 April to 28 April, you can visit a tour of the Easter-decorated chateau in Loučeň in Central Bohemia. You will learn how Easter was celebrated by the House of Thurn-Taxis about a hundred years ago. One of the members of the princely family will take you through the chateau interiors on the weekend and during the Easter holiday. You can also visit Křivoklát, home to the Princely Easter (19-21 April). As usual, you can check out the rich offer of goods at the Easter fair, taste a lot of delicacies and enjoy the programme in the first courtyard all day long. Special Easter tours will be provided in the Dačice Chateau (19-22 April) in South Bohemia, or at the Bouzov Castle (19-22 April) in Central Moravia. On Saturday, 13 April, there will be an Easter folk fair in the Slezskoostravský Castle in North Moravia, with a display of crafts and folk art works for sale. You can make the traditional Easter pomlázka there, paint an egg, or make a mug on the potter’s wheel.
If you are travelling to South Moravia, visit Valtice. The Valtice Chateau has prepared a rich programme for the Easter holiday (19-22 April). In addition to the tours of the chateau and the chateau theatre, there will also be an exposition of giant Easter eggs, you can see a concert in the chateau chapel, take a ride in a horse-drawn carriage in the park, or listen to cembalo music in the courtyard with wine tasting.
