Kynžvart Chateau

Category: Chateaus Region: Mariánské Lázně and its surroundings Town: Kynžvart

One of the most beautiful chateaus in the region built in Viennese Classicism style may be found in the spa town of Kynžvart.

It attracts visitors namely by its collections of the famous Austrian Chancellor, Prince Klemens von Metternich. You may visit the chancellor's library, his study with a folding table, his smoking parlour with four valuable altar paintings, as well as the chateau armoury and chapel. One of the highlights is the renowned cabinet of curiosities with Egyptian mummies, the comb of Empress Marie Therese, the writing desk of Alexander Dumas, and many other interesting artefacts. You will see all this on a single guided excursion route.

The chateau is surrounded by an English-style landscaped park spreading over an area of 300 hectares. There are 10 ponds in the park, as well as numerous smaller period-style structures and monuments that create a remarkable liaison. The park is adjoined by an 18-hole golf course.
