Comment

The construction of the new place of last rest of the Schwarzenbergs was initiated by Princess Eleonora when the church of St. They go to Domanin. The construction was led by the prince builder Karel Kühnel and in 1877 Prague Archbishop Bedřich Schwarzenberk consecrated the chapel of the Divine Redeemer. The Neo-Gothic altar of white sandstone, plaster and marble is the work of sculptor J. Pokorny. In the tomb, the remains of 26 members of the family, including Princess Eleonora, who died in 1873 and the opening of the tomb, did not arrive in the zombie coffins.
