Architectural and Historical Tour of the Cellars and Roof Structures
Every Saturday at 13:30
Forget polished rooms and richly decorated ceilings. Here, the castle reveals itself without embellishment. Authentic, raw, and in depth.
Are you curious where hundreds of barrels of wine were stored? Which routes the servants used? How a single rotting beam could alter the silhouette of the entire building? And where you might find a castle that looks almost identical to Nelahozeves?
This tour takes you beyond the usual visitor route—into the cellars, service corridors, and up into the roof structures. You’ll see constructions that are normally hidden and gain a deeper understanding of just how complex a historic building truly is.
The Renaissance castle has been preserved here in an almost unchanged state, which is exactly what makes this tour so exceptional.
You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at the day-to-day operation, technical solutions, and hard work without which no noble residence could have functioned.
Practical information
We recommend booking this tour in advance. The tour is conducted in three groups of five people each.
Be prepared for rugged terrain, high humidity, lower temperatures, and a dusty environment. During the summer months, expect higher temperatures in the attic areas. We recommend sturdy athletic shoes and warmer clothing. During the tour, you’ll climb dozens of stairs, but you’ll be rewarded with the chance to see the castle in a way that visitors regularly don’t.
The tour lasts approximately 90 minutes.
