About Konopiště Castle:
Nearly three decades before his tragic assassination in Sarajevo, Crown Prince Franz Ferdinand purchased Konopiště Castle, which dates back to the 13th century. He transformed it into a grand residence that befits his status, blending Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque styles.
Inside, visitors can explore rooms that reflect the fascinating lives of Franz Ferdinand—a passionate hunter and one of the wealthiest men of his era—and his beloved wife, Countess Sophie Chotek, a Czech noblewoman who defied societal expectations by marrying him. The castle offers a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of European nobility and boasts an impressive array of hunting trophies, fine artwork, and historic weapons. A tour of Konopiště Castle not only showcases noble life in the early 20th century but also highlights a unique love story that bridged social divides.
