Sychrov Castle
Zámek Sychrov
A neo-Gothic castle of the Rohan family, with lavish interiors and an English-style landscape garden. It is one of the most romantic Romantic-era castles in the Czech Republic.
The castle was remodeled in the 19th century by the French noble Rohan family. Its neo-Gothic exterior and rooms filled with carved wood and a collection of French portraits are elegant and lavish. The composer Dvořák visited many times, and the castle houses a memorial exhibition about him. Tours follow different routes, and the surrounding expansive English-style landscape garden can be strolled for free. It lies between Turnov and Liberec. Trains from Turnov to Liberec stop at Sychrov station, and it's about a 15-minute walk from the station.
