Discover Třebívlice: Castle, History and Wine

Třebívlice is a destination for travelers who want to discover Czech history not only through individual sights. Třebívlice Castle and its English landscape park are an important part of the historic center. There is also an exhibition on Ulrika von Levetzow, religious buildings, a long wine-making tradition and cultural events. This makes it possible to plan a stay around cultural history, walks, regional wine and seasonal experiences.

Třebívlice Castle and Ulrika von Levetzow

The castle’s current Neoclassical appearance was completed in 1837. An exhibition about Ulrika von Levetzow focuses on the baroness’s life and her relationship with J. W. Goethe. The permanent exhibition is housed in the former castle gardener’s residence. Ulrika von Levetzow spent almost her entire life on the Třebívlice estate. For families and other travelers, this creates a focus on cultural history that connects a person with the history of the place.

Architecture in the Historic Center

There are also tangible traces of past eras beyond the castle. The square in Třebívlice is home to a Baroque chapel with a statue of Saint John of Nepomuk dating from 1731. The Baroque rectory bears the Lobkowicz coat of arms and dates from 1787. The originally Gothic Church of St. Wenceslas was remodeled in the Baroque style up to around 1720. Its tower was built in 1695 by the Italian architect P. Versa, who came from Litoměřice. The granary next to the church is the oldest surviving building in Třebívlice.

The historic selection also includes Čechův mlýn, a mill rebuilt in its original style. Those who want to compare different forms of architecture will find Gothic, Baroque and Neoclassical influences in Třebívlice, as well as a building that has been rebuilt in its original style.

Wine and Events

The annual cycle also shapes the cultural character of the town. Třebívlice hosts the Václavská pouť pilgrimage festival every year. Třebívlické kulturní léto is becoming a tradition. The Johann W winery in Třebívlice represents the connection between regional flavors and local history. Its wine shop also offers guided wine tastings. The winery builds on the centuries-old tradition of wines from the Litoměřice region. This adds a culinary perspective to the cultural and historical attractions.

Getting There and the Journey Experience

Two further points are important when planning different kinds of days. During the tourism season, the Středohorský motoráček (T4) can be used to travel to Třebívlice. A hike along the Ulričinou stezkou trail can begin with a visit to the museum in the Třebívlice Castle building. This makes it possible to combine cultural sightseeing and physical activity as different focuses of a stay, without reducing the history of the place to a single highlight.
