The first stop most versions of this route make, often referred to locally as Kreuzenstein, is actually just across the Austrian border near Leobendorf in Lower Austria rather than inside the Czech Republic itself — a 19th-century reconstruction built for Count Johann Nepomuk Wilczek using genuine medieval architectural fragments gathered from castles across Europe. It's a real, frequently used film location, appearing in productions including Netflix's 'The Witcher,' even though its own history is a 19th-century assembly rather than a continuously inhabited medieval castle.
Once across into the Czech Republic, Lednice and Valtice are the genuine article: two palaces owned for generations by the same family, the Liechtensteins, connected by a shared, tree-lined parkland that together forms the largest park in the country. UNESCO listed the whole Lednice-Valtice Cultural Landscape in 1996, recognizing more than a century of deliberate landscaping across roughly 100 square miles of gardens, lakes, vineyards, and follies.
Mikulov, the day's final town, was founded as a market settlement in the early 12th century and only formally became a town in 1410. It passed from the Liechtenstein family to the Dietrichstein family by the late 16th century, who gave it its present Baroque character in the 1600s. Surrounded by the Pálava hills, Mikulov sits at the center of its own wine sub-region, known for Grüner Veltliner and Welschriesling, and was once home to Moravia's largest Jewish community — the 16th-century rabbi Judah Loew ben Bezalel held his seat here for twenty years before his better-known tenure in Prague.
