Děčin Castle

The mighty baroque castle - symbol of Děčín

The massive Baroque castle can be seen dominating the town silhouette for miles around. The so-called "Long Drive", an access road lined with high walls and partially built by cutting through the natural rock formations, likewise dates from the Baroque era. The castle itself is surrounded by a rose garden with Baroque statues. From the 1930s until the withdrawal of the Soviet Army, the castle served as a garrison. Today it houses, among other things, exhibits from the regional museum. A selection of historical weapons is on view in the former armoury, and there is also a display of Baroque paintings, sculpture, porcelain, ceramics, clocks and furniture. On the ground floor is a permanent exhibition on the history of the castle and the Thun-Hohenstein family - the lords of the castle from the mid seventeenth century until 1932.
