Prague - People walking in Prague can visit the garden of the Černín Palace in Pohořelec every Sunday. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has decided to make its historical garden accessible to the public once a week, until the end of October. People will also have the opportunity to see it on national holidays. The garden is adjacent to the seat of Czech diplomacy, the largest Baroque palace in Prague. It is possible to enjoy the greenery in French and English styles every Sunday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Entry is free, but dogs are not allowed in the garden. "By opening the garden of the Černín Palace, Minister Karel Schwarzenberg continues his effort to gradually open the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and diplomacy to a wider public," the ministry's press department told ČTK. Until now, the garden has only been accessible to the public on special occasions. For example, last year on the national holiday of September 28, it was visited by 1,140 people. The nearby Prague Castle also has its own gardens, even a whole complex. The Senate also boasts a garden. In Malá Strana, you can find the Vrtbovská garden. The park on Petřín Hill is popular. The two-level garden of the "diplomats" at the Černín Palace features a terrace, a small pool, a fountain, and a pavilion. It is located in the northern part of the palace grounds and covers an area of just under two hectares. Its construction began in 1693. The garden facade is dominated by two salya terrena in the ground floor of the middle part. In the mid-19th century, when the palace served as barracks, the garden became a courtyard filled with stables, and the pavilion served as a blacksmith shop. The state began restoring the garden during the First Republic, and its current appearance is the result of a complete rehabilitation at the end of the last century.
