    You can not visit the castle inside without a tourguide. There is no English tourguide so you have to use the provided audiotour (40kr) on a mobile phone, while the tourguide is speaking Czech to the rest of the group (you get used to it). You go at the tourguide's pace and not your own through the castle rooms, sometimes I wished I could've looked around a bit longer. The beautiful gardens are freely accessible, though. The Barok tour is currently not available, hopefully it will be back soon, I'd have loved to see it. Definitely recommend doing the other two tours. Our first (Czech) tourguide was very boring and hastly led us through everything. My audioguide in English couldn't keep up. The audio is in a Google Translate voice, not ideal, but you can also just read the text. Our second tourguide was friendlier and told longer stories, so I was also able to keep up using the audiotour. The rooms were gorgeously renovated and showed the luxuries of past times. I especially loved the children's rooms, with many toys that are recognizable until this day. The restaurant has amazing banana caramel crêpes (do order it when you get the chance!) and the shop has some souvenirs and books/flyers about the area. Overal happy to have visited.

    I tried to visit when it opened. Walked to the top, told the ticket booth was at the bottom of the hill. Never found the ticket office. It was pouring rain, an awful experience.

    (Translated by Google) A piece of modern history, a great tour in a small group. Although the interior is mostly borrowed from other castles and chateaux (the original was damaged and stolen), it is still linked to the history of the chateau. Adjacent gardens in a successful reconstruction with the possibility of free tours. An exhibition of giant Lego models is currently taking place at the chateau. (Original) Kousek novodobé historie, skvělá prohlídka v malé skupině. Interiér sice převážně zapůjčen z dalších hradů a zámků, ( původní poškozen a rozkraden) nicméně stále se váže k historii zámku. Přilehlé zahrady ve zdařilé rekonstrukci s možností bezplatné prohlídky. Momentálně na zámku probíhá i výstava obřích modelů z Lega.

    (Translated by Google) Děčín Chateau will not enchant you like other Castles and chateaux such as Český krumluv, Hluboká and others. Thanks to his cruel past, we can't blame him, where one occupying army alternated after another in his gut. What I'm laughing at is how the castle was repaired and equipped to commemorate its greatest glory. Really hat down. (Original) Zámek Děčín vás neokouzlí tak jako jiné Hrady a zámky typu Český krumluv, Hluboká a jiné. Díky jeho kruté minulosti mu to nemůžeme mít ani za zlé, kde se v jeho útrobách střídala jedna okupační armáda za druhou. Před čím smekám je to, jak se podařilo zámek opravit a dovybavit tak, aby připomínal jeho největší slávu. Opravdu klobouk dolů.

    (Translated by Google) We could stroll around the courtyard in peace and marvel at the well-tended rose garden. We visited the castle on a rather less visited day. Therefore it was rather quiet there. After our leisurely stroll, we took a seat in the café and ate Palačinky with a delicious coffee. I cannot say anything about the guided tour through the castle, as we only stayed in the outdoor area and the inner courtyard. We had a very nice stay in the "Tetschner Schloss". (Original) In aller Ruhe konnten wir über den Hof schlendern und den gepflegten Rosengarten bestaunen. Wir besuchten das Schloss an einem eher weniger besuchten Tag. Daher ging es dort eher ruhig zugange. Nach unserem gemütlichen Spaziergang nahmen wir Platz im Café und aßen zu einem leckeren Kaffee Palačinky. Zur Führung durch das Schloss kann ich keine Aussage machen, da wir uns nur auf dem Außengelände und dem Innenhof aufgehalten haben. Im "Tetschner Schloss" hatten wir einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt.

  • 4/5 Sanne S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very nice castle. The guide was good, but would have been better if I had understood a single word. The audio guide ran without headphones and the confusion of voices made it difficult to understand too much. An additional tour in English might be appropriate. (Original) Sehr schönes Schloß. Die Führung war gut, wäre aber besser gewesen, wenn ich auch nur ein einziges Wort verstanden hätte. Der Audio-Guide lief ohne Kopfhörer und man verstand durch das Stimmengewirr nicht allzu viel. Eine zusätzlich Führung auf englisch wäre vielleicht mal angebracht.

  • 3/5 Liz P. 5 years ago on Google
    Lovely area with Elbe river flowing past. Lots of good/bad history involved with the castle. Very cheap to look around, but it needs a bit of money spent on sweeping the stairs and general tidy up.

    (Translated by Google) reconstruction is slow, but sure .. from what could be seen inside it was worth it .. outside together with the river Elbe: p .. beauty (Original) rekonstrukce jde sice pomalu, ale jistě.. z toho co bylo možno uvnitř vidět to stálo za to.. venek společně s řekou Labe :p.. krása

    Huge Castle with nice surroundings to walk or relax and have a cappuccino or an ice cream. At the time of my visit, the insides were closed for visitors. Local people likes to do their weddings there. Worthy though.

    This renovated museum is a joke. Audio guide in polish was created using Google translate and presented using Speech synthesis...

    Interesting 45 minutes guide tour. Be aware that you can't take photographs in the castle, before you come to the little church at the end. Audio guide in English and German can be purchased.

    Chateau of Decin, located in the heart of the Czech Republic, is a stunning and historic castle that is a must-visit attraction for anyone interested in architecture, history, and culture. The castle dates back to the 14th century and has been beautifully restored to showcase its original Baroque and Rococo style.

The castle also features a stunning library, filled with rare books and manuscripts, as well as a fascinating museum showcasing the castle's history and collections.

The castle is easily accessible by car or public transportation, and there are plenty of guided tours available for those who want to learn more about the castle's history and significance. Overall, the Chateau of Decin is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking to experience the beauty and grandeur of one of the Czech Republic's most magnificent castles

    Very nice well maintained castle. In the inner yard is a cafe with excellent pancakes, where works some people with disabilities and it cafe helps them.

  • 3/5 Simona A. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely stunning place and I highly recommend it. The only reason I gave 3 stars is due to our experience with the castle guide. We booked family tickets (children 3,7,11). The lady told us to be quiet when talking to our children and explaining about what was said so children can understand it. It really spoiled our experience! I suggest you offer child friendly tours as children's questions are very important or advertise that this castle is not child friendly. On the other hand the lady from stunning rose garden was so kind and friendly.

    (Translated by Google) A beautiful place, a castle located on the ŁABA River, lots of greenery around, well-kept lawns, a very impressive park of roses with 36 species. Spectacular views, being in this area you definitely have to come here (Original) Piękne miejsce, zamek położony nad samą rzeką ŁABĄ, dużo zieleni dookoła, trawniki zadbane, bardzo okazały park róż z 36 gatunkami.

  • 5/5 Anna K. 5 years ago on Google
    A beautiful castle worth visiting. I visited it in January so the gardens were closed (therefore I can’t mark them). The castle is really impressive, big and you will spend there at least an hour to see everything. There is also a nice cafeteria with drinks and food. We didn’t have a tour guide but the audiobooks in our language. Not sure whether you can book a tour with a guide but with the audiobook you get quite a lot of information too.

    (Translated by Google) Děčín is a castle rebuilt into a chateau in Děčín on a sandstone rock on the right bank of the Elbe above the confluence of the Elbe and Ploučnice. The first fortified settlement on the rock was probably an early medieval fort. In the thirteenth century, a Gothic castle was built in its place. At the beginning of the fourteenth century, it was acquired by the Vartenberks, to whom it belonged until 1511. In the second half of the sixteenth century, the lords of Bünau had the old castle rebuilt into a Renaissance chateau. The third important family in Děčín became the Thun-Hohenstein family, who owned the chateau in 1628–1932. Behind them, the castle was rebuilt in the Baroque and Classicist style. Although it served as a manor house, until the eighteenth century it also served as an important land fortress, which was often besieged and conquered by foreign and imperial troops. (Original) Děčín je hrad přestavěný na zámek v Děčíně na pískovcové skále na pravém břehu Labe nad soutokem Labe a Ploučnice. Prvním opevněným sídlem na skále bývalo nejspíše raně středověké hradiště. Ve třináctém století na jeho místě vyrostl gotický hrad. Na počátku čtrnáctého století jej získali Vartenberkové, kterým patřil až do roku 1511. Páni z Bünau nechali ve druhé polovině šestnáctého století starý hrad přestavět na renesanční zámek. Třetím významným rodem v Děčíně se stali Thun-Hohensteinové, kteří zámek vlastnili v letech 1628–1932. Za nich byl zámek přestavěn v barokním a klasicistním slohu. Přestože sloužil jako panské sídlo, plnil až do osmnáctého století také funkci důležité zemské pevnosti, kterou často obléhala a dobývala cizí i císařská vojska.

    Zámek Děčín, ležící nad soutokem Labe a Ploučnice, patří mezi nejvýznamnější historické památky severních Čech. Zámek okouzlí návštěvníky především tehdejší nejznámější rosarií v habsburské monarchii Růžovou zahradou a monumentální barokní konírnou. Otevřené je také revitalizované jižní křídlo. V průběhu roku se na zámku konají svatební obřady, koncerty, výstavy, literární čtení, ochutnávky vín, festivaly, trhy a další kulturní akce. Zámek je otevřen celoročně.

    (Translated by Google) We visited an exhibition of castles and chateaux from the LEGO building set at the Děčín chateau. The exhibition is not that big, but the individual exhibits are simply bombastic! The dominant feature is the Hogwarts castle from Harry Potter. It contains over 1,000,000 cubes and weighs 1,000 kg. The exhibition is extended until December 2020. (Original) Navštívili jsme na děčínském zámku výstavu hradů a zámků z LEGO stavebnice.

Výstava je prodloužena do Prosince 2020.
