Garden of Troja Castle, Castle park in Troja district, Prague, Czech Republic
The Garden of Troja Castle extends across multiple terraces featuring geometric patterns, fountains, statues, and ornamental flowerbeds along straight pathways.
The garden was established in 1685 by Count Václav Vojtech of Sternberg and completed in 1691 according to the design by Jiri Seeman.
The garden contains numerous terracotta vases, busts, and allegorical figures created by Sebastian Bombelli, reflecting French Baroque design principles.

A circular maze made of hornbeam trees with water features occupies the eastern section of the garden, connecting to the Saint Clara vineyard.

Prague is known for its historic landmarks, but beyond the usual tourist routes lie numerous lesser-visited sites that offer deeper insight into the city's history and contemporary life. This collection takes you to neighborhoods, gardens and buildings often overlooked, revealing the layered past of Prague and its active cultural scene. Among the sites are the hilltop fortress of Vyšehrad with its historic cemetery, the baroque Vrtba Garden in Malá Strana, and Strahov Monastery with its impressive library. Kampa Park on Kampa Island offers quiet walks along the Čertovka Canal, while Speculum Alchemiae presents underground Renaissance-era laboratories. Troja Palace in the northern part of the city features baroque architecture and terraced gardens, and the Convent of St. Agnes houses medieval art collections. Other stops include Wallenstein Garden with its Renaissance arcades, the Letná beer garden overlooking the rooftops, and the former factory site of MeetFactory in Smíchov, now a cultural center. The National Technical Library in Dejvice and the rotating Kafka head sculpture on Národní třída represent contemporary Prague. From the Invalidovna fortress complex in Karlín to the Royal Game Reserve in Bubeneč, this collection provides varied perspectives on the Czech capital.
