Zámek Chyše hosts weddings where the ceremony, the banquet and the after-party take place on the same estate. The ceremony can be held in front of the château, in its stucco hall or in its library, and a closed pub room seats 25 guests for a small celebration. The château is in the village of Chyše, 35 kilometers from Karlovy Vary on the way to Prague.
Weddings and receptions
The official site lists three wedding packages, called bronze, silver and gold. All three include a ceremony in front of the château, in the stucco hall or in the library, furniture set up for the ceremony, and the use of the château interior and grounds for the couple's photographs. The silver and gold packages add the rental of a terrace with a stage for the wedding banquet, a bar for a closed group, furniture for the meal, string lights and a chill-out corner. The gold package also includes accommodation in the guesthouse for up to 28 people. A dry or wet variant of the ceremony is possible, which helps when the weather is uncertain.
Dates are set by the registry office in Žlutice. A couple who want another date with their own officiant can write to the events team. A wedding coordinator is offered as an extra service, from early morning until late evening, to help with decoration, the entrance, the guests and the suppliers. The site lists 2027 wedding dates, mostly Fridays and Saturdays from January to October.
Rooms and capacities
For a small wedding, the team recommends renting the closed rooms of the brewery pub. The capacity is 25 guests, and the rental covers the period from lunch to evening. The stucco hall and the library are named as ceremony rooms, and the terrace with a stage is the banquet space. The official site does not give seating capacities for these spaces, so ask the events team for the number of guests each one takes.
Accommodation
The guesthouse in the Chyše Castle Brewery has six rooms and a total capacity of 20 people. There are four double rooms, one three-bed apartment and one four-bed apartment, and an extra bed can be added to any room. Every room has its own bathroom with a toilet, a TV, a refrigerator, a kettle, a safe and free Wi-Fi. Parking is free on the brewery grounds. The site advises couples who want the gold package with accommodation to reserve the date by January 31, 2027, because later availability depends on occupancy.
Catering
Catering comes from the Chyše Castle Brewery next door. The team can arrange sandwiches on arrival, a two-course wedding lunch or a buffet, and evening snacks, usually a buffet. Guests can also drink the craft beer brewed on site. The brewery reopened in 2006 and resumed production after 74 years. The restaurant serves home-style cooking and the brewery offers visits with tastings by reservation.
History and setting
The estate dates from 1158. It was first a Gothic castle, then a Renaissance and Baroque château, and its last rebuild in the middle of the 19th century gave it its English Gothic appearance. The most valuable feature is a ceiling painting in oil from 1699 by Petr Brandl, a master of Czech Baroque. The writer Karel Čapek is linked to the house, and a room is dedicated to him on the guided tour.
Getting there
Chyše is one hour from Prague and 35 minutes from Karlovy Vary by road. The official site does not mention a train station or an airport.
