The goal of the competition is to transform the premises of the castle into spaces that the university, in cooperation with the municipality of Zahrádky and the Liberec region, could use as a conference center, including accommodation facilities, a municipality information center and a center for leisure activities. In other buildings (especially the orangery, and the farmhouse), we expect to place a cafe or a small restaurant.
The announcer of the competition is the Charles University.
