Dobříš Castle is a Rococo château built between 1745 and 1765, set at the foot of the Brdy Highlands 40 km southwest of Prague, with a Hall of Mirrors, a French Park, a 30-hectare English landscape park and an orangery with a monumental facade painting. Civil, church and symbolic wedding ceremonies take place in three distinct settings, and the castle's own four-star hotel provides ten rooms and a bridal suite for the wedding party.
Dobříš Castle was already a grand residence when the Mansfeld family acquired it in 1630, but it was Heinrich Paul Mansfeld who gave it its present character: the Rococo rebuilding of 1745–1765 produced the Hall of Mirrors, the five-terraced French Park, and the orangery that now displays the largest facade painting in Central Europe — a restored illusory composition showing architectural scenes with classical deities, stretching the full length of the north wall. The family's connection to the property continued through the Colloredo-Mannsfeld line until 1942, and the current owners reclaimed and began restoring the estate in 1998.
Today the castle offers three ceremony settings — the glittering Hall of Mirrors, the open terraces of the French Park with rain-alternative in the Hall, and the renovated former Horse Stable with its elegant new proportions — each priced transparently and available on Fridays and Saturdays as a default. Photography ranges freely across the courtyard, French Park, and 30-hectare English landscape park beyond. Eleven hotel rooms and a dedicated bridal suite in the castle's northern wing accommodate the wedding party, while three exclusive catering partners handle the feast, and the orangery's paintings provide a backdrop that no marquee or ballroom could rival.
