📍 Šluknovský zámek

About the venue

The Renaissance castle in Šluknov was built between 1566 and 1573 by Arnošt ze Šlejnic in the Saxon Renaissance style, on the site of an earlier fortified manor. A devastating fire in 1986 left it in ruins for two decades until a full reconstruction reopened it to the public in 2007. Visitors can follow a First-Republic-era tour route dedicated to the last owner, Ervín Leopold Nostitz-Rieneck. Every year on the last weekend of June, the castle and its park host a period-costume Castle Festival.
