Liblice Chateau

The main sight of Liblice is a Baroque chateau (1699–1706) designed by Giovanni Battista Alliprandi for Count Arnošt Josef Pachta of Rájov (Graf Ernst Josef Pachta Freiherr v. Rayhofen). The chateau serves since 1952 as a conference and recreational facility of Czech Academy of Sciences and was not accessible to public until 2007.

An extensive reconstruction of the castle, co-financed by the European Union funds, was completed in 2007, changing the premises into a conference and culturally-educational centre, a castle hotel with restaurants and a relaxing wellness centre.
