Shalom! World.
Pardubice Castle. Prihadek. Pardubice - Czech Republic.
The first traces of a mansion within the chateau area originate in the late 13th century. The most visible reconstruction took place during the reign of the House Pernstejn at the brink of the 15th and 16th centuries. The former castle was transformed to a chateau. Around it, massive ramparts were build. Today there is no other castle in Central Europe with such parameters and extent of preservation. The Palace displays the preserved valuable relics of early-Renaissance wall paintings, two cassette ceilings and a number of the other architectonic elements. In 1560, the Pernstejns sold both the chateau and the mansion to the King. Latest renovations came in 1570s. The original interior has not survived. Today the Castle is the seat of the East Bohemian and partially also the East Bohemian Gallery.
