Kladruby nad Labem - chateau and stud-farm

533 14 Kladruby nad Labem

The National Horse Breeding Farm in Kladruby nad Labem is apparently the oldest large horse breeding farm in the world, and presently deals with breeding Old Kladruby horses. It was established in 1579, when Emperor Rudolph II promoted the original horse enclosure to an imperial court horse breeding farm. The Emperor had a chateau built here for his frequent stays and the first reference to it is from 1588. The single-storey chateau was built in Renaissance style, over the centuries it was renovated in Baroque and Pseudo-Renaissance style. The chateau mainly served to accommodate guests, which is proven by the large number of rooms, two kitchens, chambers and cellars.
