Čechy pod Kosířem

Čechy pod Kosířem is a municipality and village in Prostějov District in the Olomouc Region of the Czech Republic.

The first written mention of Čechy pod Kosířem is in a deed of Bishop Jindřich Zdík from 1141.

It was adapted as a landscape area with a network of canals, footpaths and small architectural structures.

The pavilion served the painter Josef Mánes as a studio, which visited the castle for more than twenty years and created his masterpieces.

At the time of August Alexander Silva-Tarouca, today's terrain modeling of the park was created, including two ponds, and in 1853 an orangery was built next to the castle.
