Cechy pod Kosirem - South Moravia, Czech Republic - Castles on Waymarking.com

A natural landscape park in a romantic style surrounds the building of a Classical chateau, which originated from a reconstruction of an older Baroque building. The chateau garden in the Baroque style with pathways seems to have existed in Cechy pod Kosírem already at the beginning of the 18th century. In 1768 the estate with the chateau was bought by originally Portugese house of Silva-Tarouca. Famous Czech painter Josef Mánes was a friend of this art loving family and used to visit regularly this chateau between the period 1849–1871.
