In front of the garden façade of the castle on the eastern side, there is a Neptune fountain with a pool in the shape of an elongated quadrangle. The water basin and the statue of Neptune are an integral part of the castle grounds and date from the first third of the 19th century. The fountain is a beautiful and historic element of the park landscape, adding charm and elegance to the entire setting.

History of the Palace. There is a chateau in the vicinity of Šlerzovice, the construction of which began as early as the 16th century. In the 18th century, the building passed into the hands of Johann Friedrich von Eichendorff, who decided to build a new palace and park. In 1844, the estate was acquired by the Jewish banker Salomon Mayer von Rothschild, who decided to carry out a redevelopment in neo-Baroque style. The park included a hunting lodge, restaurant, orangery, greenhouses, caretaker's cottages, dairy and stables. After the Second World War, the park was reduced to 86 hectares, and in 1970 the first golf course in the People's Democracy was built on the site. The park contains numerous specimens of dendroflora, including a red-leaved beech with a trunk circumference of 350 cm, Wejutka pines, junipers, oaks and beech trees with circumferences of 360 cm to 380 cm.
