Loučeň Chateau With Labyrinths and Mazes

Explore the romantic Loučeň Chateau with its 11 labyrinths and mazes located in the large park of the chateau! The Loučeň Chateau, which you can easily reach from Prague by taking the highway in the direction of Mladá Boleslav, presents an ideal place to go if you are looking to learn something new, see something romantic and have some fun. You will be guided through the chateau by a costumed duchess or her valet. After an engaging presentation about life at the chateau some one hundred years ago you will set off for the spacious park with labyrinths and mazes, which is a big attraction and a peculiarity not to be found at any other chateau or castle in Europe. The Englishman Adrian Fisher, the most famous current designer of labyrinths in the world, designed all 11 garden labyrinths and mazes for the chateau. Individual labyrinths and mazes are interconnected through a trail that reveals something from the history and presence of labyrinths and mazes. Before you go to Loučeň, you should probably know one quite important thing, that is, what the difference between a labyrinth and a maze is: while there is only one path in a labyrinth, although not straightforward at all, in a maze there are choices in the pathway. After exploring all the labyrinths and mazes, which will certainly take you a lot of time as all of them are fascinating, you may like to have a picnic under one of the exotic trees in the park. If you are still not ready to go back home, you can spend the night or a weekend in one of the period apartments of the chateau.
