Detailed description
Neo-Gothic monument, the Bohemian Windsor
Originally a royal castle from the 13th century, it has been rebuilt several times. It was only the reconstruction from 1840 to 1871 that gave it its present neo-Gothic appearance. It used to be the residence of the noble Schwarzenberg family, who were responsible for its reconstruction on the model of the royal castle of Windsor.
The obverse side of the medal features a frontal view of Hluboká Castle, emphasising its monumentality and preserving the details of the façade. The compositional motif of the entire building is emphasised.
The legend of the medal "HUBOKÁ CASTLE" is placed in two lines below the motif of the castle to evoke the horizontality of the castle garden in front of its facade. The relief treatment preserves the natural plastic gradation of the building's masses.
The reverse side of the medal uses the Schwarzenberg coat of arms motif, which dominates the facade of the castle building above the main entrance. The heraldic coat of arms captures not only the basic features of the family, but has also been supplemented several times in history by the merits of the members of the family and elements symbolizing the development of the estate. In the heart shield of the coat of arms are the emblems of the Schwarzenberg estate. The coat of arms contains the Latin inscription "NIL NISI RECTUM", i.e. "NOTHING BUT THE RIGHT".
