The Feast of Roses

"ASTROLOGY"

The beauty of flowers and the mysteries of the universe in honour of the astronomer, alchemist, mathematician and court physician of Emperor Rudolf II. Thaddeus Hajek of Hajek (1525 - 1600)


The 16th edition of the tours of the castle, scented with rich floral arrangements, will be held in a unique spirit this year:


ASTROLOGY - STARS - CONSTELLATIONS - UNIVERSE


Each chamber on the first floor of the chateau will be transformed into a different corner of the infinite universe - from shining planets to mysterious constellations to the poetry of the starry sky. Rich floral weaves inspired by astrology and the universe will combine the beauty of nature with the mystery of the celestial distances.

Take a journey through time and space - from the Renaissance scientific revolution to contemporary glimpses into the depths of the universe.
