About Hospital Kuks
The Hospital of Kuks is set in a valley landscape north of Hradec Králové. The Baroque complex brings together buildings and a terrace marked by sculptures, linked with external paths. The visit presents a historic charitable institution and an architectural composition that can be viewed from the surroundings.
The church, the historic pharmacy and the hospital spaces are among the topics of the guided routes, depending on the chosen visit. The figures associated with the Virtues and the Vices help to understand the artistic program of the complex. The interest is not limited to photographing an isolated sculpture, but to understanding the whole ensemble and its siting.
Choose the internal route and allow time to walk from the arrival point to the buildings. The area does not function as a single museum room next to the station. To combine with Hradec Králové, check regional connections and allow time to return after the visit and the outdoor tour.
