The state castle, Tuwora Gallery and the “Naučná stezka Nebílovy” nature trail offer different highlights. When choosing Nebílovy as your destination, you can first decide whether architectural history, art or a walking route will shape your stay. You can plan your journey by bus, bicycle or car; each option has a specific point of reference.
Castle Architecture and Art
Nebílovy State Castle is a High Baroque building, constructed in the early 18th century in the style of a Viennese palace. It consists of two horseshoe-shaped buildings facing one another along the longitudinal axis of the courtyard. The interplay between the two buildings and the courtyard gives the complex its distinctive form. Both the period of construction and the unusual arrangement of the buildings are therefore of interest when considering the castle.
The interiors also contribute to the castle’s cultural character: they are decorated with wall paintings by Antonín Tuvora. The Tuwora Gallery offers a different focus. There, Baroque character meets modern art, and the gallery also regularly hosts exhibitions. Architecture, wall paintings and modern art thus offer different ways to explore Nebílovy’s cultural attractions.
Another historical memorial can be found at the “Nejsvětější Trojice” station. A stone obelisk there commemorates the land redistribution of 1924. Its inscription or dedication refers to a specific year and occasion. Alongside the castle’s architectural and artistic history, this adds another historical point of reference.
Circular Trail and Cycle Route
The “Naučná stezka Nebílovy” nature trail is a 5.7-kilometre circular route. Its stated length helps you assess the route as a separate part of your trip planning. As conditions on the route can change, check them before setting out. The circular trail is a walking option distinct from travelling by bicycle: Nebílovy can be reached by bicycle from Černice in Plzeň via cycle route No. 2126.
This gives you two different points of reference for planning: a 5.7-kilometre circular route and a named cycle route starting in Černice. The details describe different aspects of a stay and can be taken into account according to your personal preferences. If you mainly want to plan a walking route, the nature trail is the right reference point; for travelling by bicycle, cycle route No. 2126 is relevant. Check current cycling conditions before setting off.
Getting to Nebílovy
You can reach Nebílovy in about 40 minutes by bus from the main railway station terminal. This is an estimate for travel by public transport; check the current timetable before your journey. If you are travelling by car, there is a large car park on the edge of Nebílovy in the direction of Plzeň, with space for several dozen cars. Since availability and capacity should be checked again before your trip, it is worth checking the current parking situation as part of your planning.
You can then choose the most suitable way to plan your journey: based on the approximate bus travel time, the starting point of the cycle route or the car park on the edge of town. Check the timetable, cycling conditions or parking situation as appropriate for your chosen mode of travel.
