Lysá nad Labem Castle Park, Historical park at Lysá nad Labem, Czech Republic

Lysá nad Labem Castle Park is a Baroque garden surrounding the castle buildings, featuring walking paths, stone statues, and diverse plantings across its grounds. The layout combines open spaces and tree-lined avenues that guide visitors through different sections of the property.

Count František Antonín Špork laid out the first French ornamental garden after 1696 on the site of an orchard, inspired by his travels to Versailles. His adopted son František Karel Rudolf Swéerts-Sporck bought neighbouring land in 1741–1749, creating one of Bohemia's first English landscape parks, called Bludnice. Princess Štěpánka Viktorie Rohanová rebuilt the parterre after 1851, and Eduard Petzold, who died in 1891, gave the park its last major design.

The sculptural decoration comes from workshops of Matyáš Bernard Braun's and Ignác František Plazter's pupils. Princess Štěpánka Viktorie of Rohan had the twelve allegories of the months moved into the new central axis of the French garden, where they still stand.

The grounds are accessible year-round with clearly marked trails connecting different areas of the park. Informational plaques positioned along the routes help visitors understand the history and features of individual sections.

The English landscape section, called Bludnice since Renaissance times, was assembled by František Karel Rudolf Swéerts-Sporck, who bought neighbouring plots between 1741 and 1749, including a small quarry on the north side. It ranks among the earliest English-style park layouts in Bohemia.
