The new light park at Pardubice Chateau turns the evening into a wondrous world of inventions and discoveries — a story told by thousands of LEDs, from the first machines and railways to aviation and the journey to the stars.

The chateau ramparts become the workshop of a genius. You follow a trail of light between photo spots: a steam locomotive in full glow, the horses of light of the Velká Pardubická steeplechase, Jan Kašpar's flying machine, and an observatory at the end of the road to the stars. The Wondrous World of Inventions pays tribute to the era when Pardubice flew, raced and invented.
Open from 28. 10. 2026, every day from 15:30 to 21:00.
