Tips for visitors
The best time to visit is early morning during the spring and autumn months, when there are fewer visitors and light is soft, which allows quiet tours and photography. In summer days it is recommended to come after noon when the sun is above and lighting the interior is best. Transport can be arranged both by car and by public transport - check the current connection in the public transport search engine. Take comfortable shoes, water and umbrella for the tour, as part of the tour may be outside. We also recommend having a city map or a mobile application with an offline map to make it easy to navigate. The best places for photography are in front of the main entrance and in the inner courtyard, where natural light falls. It is ideal to photograph during the golden hour - shortly after sunrise or before sunset - when light gives historical details a warm shade. There are no other places in the immediate vicinity of the monument, so after the tour you can continue to discover the historical centre of Pardubice, where you will find other architectural attractions.
