This time we are going to visit Šilheřovice in Czech Republic. This village is located only a few kilometers away from Polish-Czech border. Our goal is to visit the castle with the surrounding park. We have nice, sunny spring day - perfect to stroll the park paths and to make a few interesting shots.
In Šilheřovice, in the place of a former Renaissance fortress, the Eichendorff family built the chateau in the romantic style in the late eighteenth century, which was later rebuilt in pseudo-baroque style. Around the palace was founded large English-style park with rare trees from many parts of the world. It is now one of the largest 18-hole golf courses in the Czech Republic. In the palace are organized various social events and cultural activities. In the park, by the lake (which was unfortunately empty while our visit) is located nice hunting castle, dating from the XVIII century and once belonging to the Rothschild family.
Near the park we found a parking lot (P; GPS: 49.926740, 18.270727). Then we went across the street and then just straight, having the chateau park on our left side. After about 200 meters we entered the area of the park, and then following the path we came to the vicinity of the palace (A; GPS: 49.925890, 18.274484). We went through the large golf course. From a distance we could already see the hunting castle's roofs. The hunting castle is the place where you can have a meal or drink something (B; GPS: 49.924778, 18.277791).
