Schwarzenberg Tomb, Neo-Gothic family tomb in Domanín, Czech Republic

The Schwarzenberg Tomb is a two-storey neo-Gothic octagonal building with a double staircase leading to the Chapel of the Divine Redeemer; the tomb entrance lies beneath the chapel entrance. The chapel holds a neo-Gothic altar of white sandstone, plaster and marble by Josef Pokorný, and the tomb contains a marble sarcophagus carved by Alexandr Trippel in 1789.

From 1784 the Schwarzenbergs were buried in the cemetery church of St. Giles by the Svět pond, but by the 1840s space had run out and new rules required embalming and double-shell coffins. Johann Adolf II and his wife Eleonora of Liechtenstein planned a new tomb; after Eleonora died in 1873, work began on 14 July 1874 under builder Karel Kühnel. The Chapel of the Divine Redeemer was consecrated on 29 July 1877 by Archbishop Bedřich Schwarzenberg, the founder's brother.

The chapel hosts summer evening concerts and vocal performances; the Spiritual Quintet and violinist Václav Hudeček (2011) have appeared here. The high altar faces south, not east, because the founders wanted the entrances turned toward Třeboň. A legend says touching the shield of the "Little Genius" statue brings wisdom.

The tomb stands in Třeboň park southeast of the Svět pond, about 2 km from Masaryk Square in Třeboň. Both entrances face north toward the town, so the chapel stairway and the lower tomb entrance are reached from the same side. The tomb is open to the public and managed by the Schwarzenberg Tomb Foundation since November 2021.

The marble sarcophagus of Johann I Nepomuk, carved by Alessandro Trippelli in 1789, cost 25,000 guilders. Nearby stands a "Little Genius" holding a shield with the Schwarzenberg coat of arms; by local legend, touching the shield brings wisdom.
