Tour of Přerov nad Labem

The castle was created by rebuilding the original water fortress in the 14th century. Today we can see the Renaissance appearance of the castle with sgraffito decoration.

Remains of Renaissance ramparts and bastions are also preserved near the chateau. The interiors of the chateau are inaccessible – the chateau belongs to Czech Radio. However, a petition is underway to save Přerov Castle. The castle interiors retain original Gothic features and Renaissance fireplaces.

The local open-air museum of folk buildings, or the Elbe Ethnographic Museum, was established at the end of the 19th century as the 4th open-air museum in Europe. We can see a large number of folk buildings that were „moved“ from the surrounding villages, including the interiors.

Most of the buildings are accessible, so we have a unique opportunity to see their interiors, including period furniture and all equipment. During the year, various thematic exhibitions take place here (eg Easter, etc.).

There are not only wooden buildings, but also brick buildings, including gates. There is also a small period cemetery.

We can see a chapel here, for example, a forge, barn or school. There is also a large number of period agricultural implements to be seen.
