The chateau complex, situated on the left bank of the Ohře River, constitutes a dominant landmark in the town’s recently restored urban conservation area. The chateau is set in the middle of extensive landscaped grounds with 220 rare tree species from all over the world. The park features a sala terrena with a gloriette and sculptural decoration by Jan Brokoff, 1680s); the park’s northern section is graced with the Stations of the Cross (1690s).

Currently, the chateau has three visitor routes:

Route 1: Bohemian and Czech Porcelain
Occupying 21 rooms on the chateau’s first floor, the collection of Bohemian and Czech porcelain documents the more than 200-year-old history of porcelain manufacturing in Bohemia. The historical showcases and interiors feature the output of porcelain factories in Slavkov, Klášterec nad Ohří, Březová, Kisibl, Chodov, Stará Role, Dalovice, Prague, Loket, Budov and Ždanov.

Route 2: Early Far Eastern and European Porcelain Manufacturing
The display presents a selection of early porcelain produced in China and Japan, as well as Meissen, Vienna and Nymphenburg between the 17th and 19th centuries.

Route 3: Chateau Complex and the Church of the Holy Trinity with the Crypt of the Thun Noble Family
This route takes visitors through the chateau’s premises with its various points of interest, followed by a tour of the town’s historic centre.

The lookout tower is open the public during the summer season.
