About this episode

The functionalist Villa Tugendhat in Brno is on the UNESCO list of Czech monuments. But do you know who is behind the reconstruction of the adjacent plot? The couple and garden architects Kamila and Přemysl Krejčiřík specialize in restoring gardens at historic buildings. They will guide us through the transformation of a private green kingdom hidden away in a secluded spot in the Orlické Mountains. Little and big princesses and their knights will appreciate the romantic atmosphere of centuries-old trees, rhododendron beds and newly planted perennial carpets. For inspiration, the presenter Ferdinand Leffler will also visit the nearby city of Prague, where a centuries-old Art Nouveau villa and contemporary art coexist in a pleasant harmonious union.
