A castle preserved by the municipality of Roost Warendin which deserves your visit when it opens. Next slot, the Heritage Days in September.

Surprising and exciting, this pretty castle is worth the detour! Built in the middle of the 18th century, it has been restored (parquet, marquetry and grisaille paintings are from the period). Emptied of its furniture by the former owners, it now houses a museum "of ancient times" with reconstructions of daily life at the beginning of the 20th century. Thank you to the person from the town hall for the guided tour which was as interesting as it was friendly.

Clementinum

The Clementinum is a historic complex of buildings in Prague. Until recently the complex hosted the National, University and Technical libraries, the City Library also being located nearby on Mariánské Náměstí. The Technical library and the Municipal library have moved to the Prague National Technical Library at Technická 6 since 2009. It is currently in use as the National Library of the Czech Republic.

Its history dates from the existence of a chapel dedicated to Saint Clement in the 11th century. A Dominican monastery was founded in the medieval period, which was transformed in 1556 to a Jesuit college. In 1622 the Jesuits transferred the library of Charles University to the Klementinum, and the college was merged with the University in 1654. The Jesuits remained until 1773, when the Klementinum was established as an observatory, library, and university by the Empress Maria Theresa of Austria.
