Valtice Chateau & National Wine Salon
Zámek Valtice
The Baroque main residence of the Liechtenstein family, whose cellar houses the National Wine Salon, where you can taste the Czech Republic’s annually selected top 100 wines.
Valtice Chateau was the main residence of the Liechtenstein family in Moravia. Its Baroque palace includes a chapel, a Mirror Hall, and a theatre, and visits are conducted with a guide. Beneath the palace, the wine cellar houses the Czech National Wine Salon, where the 100 best Czech wines selected each year can be sampled in a self-service tasting, limited to about 90 minutes. It is a must-visit for wine lovers. In the surrounding fields are garden structures such as the Baroque colonnade of Reistna, and a tree-lined avenue and cycling path (about 7 kilometers) connect the chateau with Lednice. It is about 60 kilometers from Brno and has direct train service.
