Chateau Potštejn

Chateau Potštejn

The baroque chateau was built in 1749, yet it has undergone extensive renovation thanks to its new owners and is alive again. Today, the chateau offers many interesting attractions and cultural adventures. Performance tours in baroque costumes are probably the most popular. These tours are both exciting and educational. You have the opportunity to see the lives of the local aristocrats from the middle of the 18th century in a fun and original way. The night tour is also magical… A little scary, but also funny. Before you leave the chateau, don't forget to stop by the chateau confectionery and try some of the delicious homemade desserts.

Doudleby nad Orlicí Chateau

This chateau was built in 1588 by Italian Renaissance artists. It was first used as the summer house of the Buben of Litice Family, and later as a hunting lodge. The unique graffito decorations immediately catch your eye: they cover all of the external as well as internal façades. The chateau interior contains a series of well-preserved rooms that are richly decorated with early Baroque paintings, stucco, and decorations. The early Baroque Dutch stove in the great hall is particularly notable. Do not miss a walk through the chateau park and a newly established game preserve.
