Lednice – the beauty of South Moravia full of history

Lednice is one of the most popular castles in the Czech Republic and you can admire its beauty all year round. This castle, inscribed on the UNESCO list, will charm you not only with its architecture, but also with its vast park and unique Minaret.

In autumn, when the surrounding trees shine with colorful leaves, the entire environment of the castle acquires an unforgettable touch. The Lednice-Valtice area offers the possibility of walks and bike trips, making it an ideal place for an autumn day.

Český Šternberk – medieval fortress in Posázaví

The majestic Český Šternberk Castle stands on a rock above the Sázava River, which remains open year-round and stands out for its preserved medieval atmosphere. The interiors of the castle take you back to the days of knights and kings, when defending the castle was a matter of survival. The view of the autumn landscape around Sázava adds an unforgettable character to the visit, which is popular not only with history lovers, but also with nature.

Karlštejn Castle – symbol of the Czech kingdom

Karlštejn, one of the most important Czech castles, is a silent witness to the past during autumn. Even outside the main tourist season, you have the opportunity to get to know the local history and discover the interesting things that the interiors and surroundings of the castle offer.

Karlštejn impresses in autumn with its beautiful views, which are particularly impressive in September and October. Whether you go on a tour of the royal chambers or just a hike on the surrounding roads, Karlštejn in its autumnal guise will captivate you.

“It is not true that Karlštejn is besieged by foreign tourists,” reveals the castellan Lukáš Kunst, who also lives in the castle. “It’s a beautiful place and a lot of people would like to enjoy it. But when you live and work there, you are actually at work 24 hours a day. When you go to bed at night, you go to bed at work. Then you fall asleep and wake up in the morning again at work. But that’s just part of it,” he laughs.

Sychrov Castle – a treasure of northern Bohemia

Sychrov is another year-round open place where you can see the history and elegance of the past. This castle is famous for its Neo-Gothic architecture and beautiful interiors that will amaze you at first sight.

In addition to the tour, you can also enjoy a walk in the castle park, whose autumn colors create a romantic backdrop for all visitors. Sychrov is ideal for those looking for a quiet and less known place for autumn trips.

Hluboká nad Vltavou Castle – a fairy tale in the shadow of the forest

In the south of Bohemia is the Hluboká nad Vltavou castle, which transports you to a fairy-tale world. Although it is mainly known for its summer tours, its winter charm and year-round openness make Hluboká a great autumn destination.

The white facades of the castle contrast with the autumn leaves, creating a fascinating visual experience. After the tour, you can relax in the adjacent park, where nature in autumn colors perfectly harmonizes with the beauty of this place.
