RE: Prague/Czech Republic - Wednesday photo challenge - share your personal pictures from your visit to the Czech Republic!
Chateau in Libeň, Prague
Today, Liben is part of Prague. But until the 19th century it was a separate village. There was once a fortress that was rebuilt at the end of the 16th century to chateau. The chateau has undergone many modifications - Baroque and especially Rococo. In the Rococo style, the chapel of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary was built.
The highlight of the glory was the second half of the 18th century. At that time, Maria Theresia, Joseph II and Leopold II sometimes stayed here. The treaties were concluded and edicts issued here.
But that's all gone. Today wedding ceremonies are the most common here.
