A LEGACY REBORN: OUR HISTORY
The story of this land begins with an ancient Celtic settlement in Mcely, upon which a Baroque manor was erected in the late 17th century. Originally a grand hunting lodge, it evolved into a prestigious rural residence for Europe’s finest aristocratic families – most notably the Thurn-Taxis princes, who called Mcely home from 1869 to 1948. After decades of neglect following the Second World War, the Chateau faced demolition. Its salvation came in 2004 when Inéz and Jim Cusumano began a monumental restoration, opening its gates
to a new era of guests in 2006. To delve deeper into our transformation, the book Chateau Mcely: Honey, Pearls & Silk and the documentary film “The Transformation of Chateau Mcely" are available in your room.

THE VISIONARIES BEHIND THE GATES
The modern soul of Chateau Mcely was sparked in 2001 when Inéz Cusumano discovered the abandoned ruins in the heart of the Czech countryside. Sensing a profound, captivating energy beneath the overgrown park, Inéz – then a high-flying corporate executive – chose to leave the boardroom behind to create a haven of peace and inspiration. Her vision flourished when she met her husband, Jim Cusumano, an entrepreneur and filmmaker. They combined their talents to transform the estate into a space that offers joyful hospitality, enriching the lives of guests and the local community alike. Since the first stone was turned, they have been supported by Vlastimil and Eva Plch. Today, Vlastimil serves as Managing Director, while Eva leads marketing and charitable initiatives. Together with their dedicated team, they infuse the Chateau with a spirit of "service from the heart."

MCELY BOUQUET SPA
Surrender to serenity in our three unique therapy suites—Honey, Pearls, and Silk—each offering an inspiring sanctuary for an extraordinary wellness journey. All suites are designed to accommodate couples’ therapies.

The Four Sacred Rituals of the Wheel of the Year - Spring Thaw, Midsummer Treasure, Golden Oak, Northern Lights
This collection of four 150-minute signature rituals celebrates the turning of the seasons and their dominant elements. Inspired by ancient healing wisdom, each ritual is guided by a specific "intention"—a healing word that resonates throughout the experience. By engaging all the senses and using locally harvested, hand-picked herbs for the season, we harmonize the whole being with nature's rhythms. To carry this energy home, every "pilgrim" receives a handcrafted amulet as a reminder of their intention.

OUR UNIQUE COLLECTIONS & PROJECTS

1. MCELY BOUQUET: Pure Natural Skincare
   Our pure, natural skincare line, dedicated to healthy, youthful radiance, is hand-blended in small batches in our on-site laboratory. Developed by founder Inéz Cusumano, each formula marries the traditions of Czech herbalism with modern scientific expertise. Beyond Chateau Mcely, you can discover MCELY BOUQUET therapies and products at selected prestigious hotels in the Czech Republic and abroad.
2. The Heavenly Queen of Mcely
   Chateau Mcely holds a long tradition of honoring the Divine Feminine, symbolized by the Virgin Mary of Mcely. This legacy of protective energy and historical apparitions inspired our non-profit collection. Crafted from the finest materials, these pieces bring a sense of hope and harmony to our guests. All proceeds support projects dedicated to empowering women's voices.
3. The Mystic Birds Collection
   A limited-edition series by Inéz Cusumano, inspired by the tale of nine magical birds from the book Princess Nely and the Mystery of the Mint Feather. This exclusive collection features iconic shirts by designer Klára Nademlýnská, alongside silken kimonos, pajamas, silk scarves, and fine porcelain, all adorned with enchanting floral bird motifs. Every piece is a celebration of artisanal craftsmanship.
4. The Story of Princess Nely
   Inspired by her daughter and illustrated by artist Alena Holá – whose murals grace the Chateau walls – Inéz Cusumano’s tales continue a royal literary tradition. In 1910, Princess Marie Thurn-Taxis wrote and illustrated the world-renowned The Tea Party of Miss Moon for her grandsons at Mcely. Today, the legacy lives on through Nely: Princess of Chateau Mcely and its sequel, Princess Nely and the Secret of the Mint Feather. Children can live the story in our Princess Nely Suite, enjoy a special kids' menu, and join the magic at our annual Princess Gathering.
5. Handcrafted Ceramic Collection
   Every piece of Chateau Mcely ceramics is handmade in a small studio, forming a signature part of our interior soul. The design was inspired by an ancient tile found during the Chateau's restoration, reflecting the miracles of Mcely: guardian angels, protective energy, and our heritage as a Marian pilgrimage site.

WEDDING ROMANCE
Chateau Mcely is a breathtaking setting for engagements, honeymoons, and unforgettable weddings. Each season brings its own magic: Spring, with a sea of hundreds of narcissi and tulips; Summer, offering wildflower romance in the sun-drenched meadows; Autumn’s kaleidoscope of forest colors; and Winter, a fairytale of mulled wine and glittering festive decorations.
