❄️ Winter Walks in the English Park
The castle park transforms into a peaceful, snow-covered landscape, with paths lined by white branches and crystal-clear air—perfect for spotting deer quietly moving between the trees. With a truly snowy winter expected this year, the park is an ideal place for winter photography, quiet moments, or family strolls.
🎄 The Castle Wrapped in Christmas Magic
From the beginning of Advent, the castle halls glow with rich festive decorations. Christmas trees, natural greenery, twinkling lights, and traditional ornaments fill the historic interiors. In the courtyard, a charming nativity scene is accompanied by the sweet aroma of homemade Christmas biscuits, mulled wine, and punch. Zbiroh Castle becomes a dream setting for anyone seeking a genuine and heartwarming Christmas atmosphere.
