Description was written before the event

Castles and chateaux in private ownership, sometimes inherited through many generations, open their gates to the public. Owners have prepared special events for this weekend of May 22–24.

About the venue: Zámek Blatná

Blatná Water Castle in Strakonice District is one of the best-preserved water manor seats in Bohemia. The first written record dates to 1235; its most prized structure is the Gothic-Renaissance palace with triangular bay windows by architect Benedikt Rejt. Since 1798 the castle has belonged to the Hildprandt family, who reopened it to the public after restitution in 1992. The estate includes a 42-hectare English park with a herd of fallow deer; the castle has also served as a film location for several Czech fairy-tale films.
