Take a moment to the Baroque period. Visit the castle in Milotice, where the author of The Last Aristocracy "rules". Hamlet in the south of Moravia has been proud of the baroque architecture for several centuries. Chateau in Milotice, nicknamed as the pearl of southeastern Moravia, dominates the surrounding area. In its place was first a water fortress that was in 16. century building rebuilt into a one-storey Renaissance chateau. This was subsequently rebuilt in 1. half of 18. century into its Baroque form - a two-storey castle with four corner towers. Together with the chateau, the chateau garden and all the new buildings were built in accordance with the principles of baroque architecture.
The Baroque atmosphere breathes at you every step. When you enter the inner courtyard you will hear the tones of Baroque music, a few steps further you will see a fountain surrounded by symmetrical beds full of roses and lavender. From here, your eye catches the main road leading to the castle park, which is lined both sides by a hornbeam lizard leading to a Renaissance fountain. All the colors will probably illustrate the ladies and gentlemen in a baroque robe passing through the park after tea for the fifth. The idyllic baroque afternoon, part of which you can be for a while too. You can experience baroque in your own skin. Do not you believe? Visit Milotic Chateau to see for yourself! The attraction is much more to this monument!
Sensitive interconnection of Baroque and 1 culture. half of 20. century
Lovers of history will appreciate the tour of the castle. The tour details the life of the family of the last owner of the Milotic Chateau, Earl Ladislav Seilern, whose family the castle lived in 1. half of 20. century. The installation was based on the memories of Ladislav Seilern's daughter, Marie Henrietta. Preserved photos of interiors from 1. half of 20. together with the memories of Mrs. Marietta, allowed the conservationists to create almost authentically furnished interiors. In addition, they are complemented by period decorations that make the rooms feel relaxed and give the impression that the family has only retreated to a neighboring estate for a short while.
