About Appolo's Temple (
visit link)
In 1817–1819 Johann Karl Engel built a pavilion with an observation terrace and superstructure on the hill above the Mlýnský rybník pond according to the design of architect Josef Kornhäusel. The sculptural decoration, which was transferred here from the closed-down Temple of the Muses, comes from Joseph Klieber and thematically relates to ancient God Apollo. The temple gave its name also to a nearby camp by the pond.
Newly opened was the terrace of the Apollo’s temple, which offers a beautiful view of the surroundings.
