The poster exhibition entitled ‘Gardens and Gardeners of the Wallenstein Family’ presents thirty splendid palaces and gardens, located in Duchcov, Jičín, Kozel, Mnichovo Hradiště and Prague, which belonged to this aristocratic family.
Biographies of the gardeners who cared for them are also included for the first time. The exhibition pays special attention to the Dittrich family, which majorly contributed to the development of Czech horticulture in the 19th century.
The exhibition initiates a collaboration between the Eduard Petzold European Centre for Garden Art at Sarny Castle and the National Garden Culture Centre in Kroměříž.
