Deer Park Žehušice, Natural monument and protected area in Žehušice, Czech Republic

The park extends over 248 hectares of meadows and groves near Kutná Hora, featuring ancient oak trees and diverse wildlife populations.

Count Matthias Thun-Hohenstein established the park in 1867, converting a drained fish pond area behind Žehušice Castle into a fenced reserve.

The park gained media recognition in 1990 when it served as the filming location for the television series The Territory of White Deer.

The privately owned park maintains a population of 130 deer, including both standard colored and white specimens, though public access remains restricted.

The introduction of white deer from Count Kinsky in 1871 created a distinct herd that continues through generations without external bloodline additions.
