Today, we will go on a half-day optional excursion to Konopiste Castle (entrance extra), an impressive castle set in the beautiful Czech countryside.
The castle dates from the 13th Century.
It was built as a Gothic fortification in the style of a French chateau.
In the 17th century, parts of the castle were remodelled in the Renaissance style, followed by further alterations to the Baroque style in the 18th century.
Konopiste is surrounded by thick forest, so throughout its existence, hunting was a popular pursuit for the nobility staying there.
We will return to Prague in the afternoon where we will enjoy some free time.

It is one of the 12 places in the Czech Republic on UNESCO’s world heritage list, but is most famous for its remarkable ‘bone church’ (extra), a cemetry chapel decorated with the bones of up to 40,000 people.
The historic centre of Kutna Hora is one of the country’s prettiest and the gothic cathedral of St. Barbara is the country’s most spectacular.
