Getting there and practical details

Neighborhood
Loket old town, western Bohemia

Loket Castle rents its Festive Hall for dinners of up to 80 guests and receptions of up to 120, and rents the Festive Hall, the Fresco Hall and the Weapons Exhibition together for dinners of up to 160 and receptions of up to 350. It also holds wedding ceremonies. The castle stands in the town of Loket, in western Bohemia, Czech Republic.

Seminars and company events

The castle does not present a seminar offer. What it rents are halls for dinners, receptions and concerts, which suits a corporate dinner, a client reception or a gala. The Festive Hall is used for medieval and wedding banquets, concerts and theatre performances. No projection, workshop layout or accommodation is listed on the hire page, so a seminar would need to be discussed with the castle.

In the Festive Hall, the stated capacity is 80 guests at a festive dinner, 120 at a reception and 120 for a concert. Combined with the Fresco Hall and the Weapons Exhibition, the castle gives 160 seated and 350 at a reception.

Weddings and receptions

Loket runs wedding ceremonies in a Ceremony Hall reached by going down from the Festive Hall. The room has a preserved wall painting of a guard, a detail of the burning of the main town gate in the early 17th century, a painted ceiling and portraits of historical figures. The castle offers four ceremony formats. The basic one lasts about 20 minutes, with officiants in period costume, two Gothic goblets, a commemorative certificate and reproduced historical music. The Knight package lasts about 45 minutes and adds knight duels, a welcome by the castle lord and a swordsmen's performance. The Bard package adds a bard playing medieval melodies. The Medieval Feast package lasts about 90 minutes and takes place partly in the Knights' Hall, with a seated table, swordsmen and a bard. Ceremony dates are published by year on the castle's site.

After the ceremony, the Festive Hall can host the wedding banquet for up to 80 guests, or more with the combined halls.

Rooms and capacities

The Festive Hall takes 80 at a dinner, 120 at a reception and 120 at a concert. The three halls together take 160 at a dinner and 350 at a reception. The Ceremony Hall and the Knights' Hall are used for weddings, and no separate capacity is stated for them or for the Fresco Hall.

Catering

The castle does not list an in-house caterer. For the Medieval Feast package, the couple arranges the catering. Organizers should plan to bring their own caterer and confirm the rules with the castle.
