Troja Chateau Prague

Troja Chateau is considered to be one of the most important architectural works of the beginning of Late Baroque in Central Europe.

Count Václav Vojtěch of Šternberk built Troja Chateau in 1678 to secure a noble title. Designed as an Italian-style summer villa, it also hosted the emperor during hunts in nearby Stromovka.

Outstanding European artists were invited in to the construction and decoration of the chateau. The project was designed by Jean Baptist Mathey, an Italian architect, who changed the original concept to regular disposition with a grand hall in the center.

Troja Chateau is situated in a splendid part of Prague, Troja, surrounded by beautiful gardens and the Vltava River directly below.Named for its grand staircase depicting the Gods-Titans battle, construction began in 1678 but paused due to the 1685 plague, with interior decoration completed later.

The most remarkable aspects about Troja Chateau are the garden staircase, the beautiful Baroque gardens, and the interior design. Sternberg even went so far as to decorate the interiors of the stables in grand frescos!

The main staircase, upheld by two giants, connects the garden to the chateau’s first floor, adorned with statues of Greek heroes.The interior of the Grand Hall is covered with frescos by Abraham Godyn. The frescos themselves are considered to be one of the best examples of classical Baroque painting. Prague Eventery
