Sychrov Castle, Neo-Gothic château in Sychrov, Czech Republic
Sychrov Castle stands at 389 meters elevation, featuring a pink Neo-Gothic facade and containing 250 portraits within its richly decorated interior spaces.
The Rohan family, French nobles who fled during the French Revolution, purchased the castle in 1820 and transformed it from a Baroque structure into a Neo-Gothic residence.
The castle preserves Central Europe's largest collection of French portraits, including extensive artwork depicting members of the Rohan family and French royalty.
The castle provides multiple guided tours throughout the year and maintains a 23-hectare English park with specialized botanical collections and walking paths.
Czech composer Antonín Dvořák regularly visited the castle, finding musical inspiration in its surroundings and developing a friendship with the Rohan family.
