Itinerary

Konopiste Castle

one hour Admission included

Originally a Gothic Castle in the French style, founded in the year 1300, it was rebuilt in the first half of the 16th century into a chateau. After 1889, it became the seat of Franz Ferdinand d´Este, the Habsburg Crown Prince, who had Konopiste modified to its present appearance.
