Masquerade Hall, Castle
When you enter the Masquerade Hall of the Český Krumlov Castle you will feel like in the 18th century, when it was decorated by Josef Lederer. While listening to chamber concerts you can admire the painting with motives of members of aristocratic society entertaining themselves amidst masquerade bustle. Before the tones fill this hall with excellent acoustics, notice the two painted castle guardsmen keeping guard by the door, who are wearing festive uniforms reminding us of the services of the Schwarzenberg guard at the castle. If you are observant, you may notice a door with a covered corridor leading directly into the prince’s box of the Baroque Theatre. You will surely enjoy the concerts at the Masquerade Hall which is a rococo masterpiece.
