    I just want to say that there is no employee at the museum door, and I thought I had arrived late, but I asked inside and there was no problem. There is no explicit information on the website explaining that you have to do the check-in yourself.

What to See in the Palace?

The exposition, composed of 22 galleries, illustrates the dramatic history of the family through the personal effects and works of art on display in their collection. Pieces of porcelain, musical instruments, manuscripts from Beethoven or Mozart, military objects, decorative pieces from the 16th to the 20th centuries or some of the masterworks of the greatest artists such as Canaletto, Velázquez or Bruegel the Elder

Taking the tour with an audio guide in English, you can enjoy each and every detail at your own pace, being able to stop in the parts of the palace that interest you most. The audioguide is narrated through the eyes of two generations of the family.

The Lobkowicz Palace

Found in the Prague Castle complex, the  Lobkowicz Palace was constructed in the 16th Century, in a Renaissance style. Having suffered a fire in 1541, it was reconstructed in a more austere Early Baroque style, which can be seen today.

During the Second World War, the family's fortunes began to change, and the palace was seized for the first time. At the end of the war, they recovered it, but during the communist regime, all their possessions, including the palace, were once again confiscated.

In 2002, the  Lobkowicz Palace was once again returned to the family, and following significant reconstruction in 2007, it opened its doors to the public to exhibit its history and collections to visitors.
