Established between 1665 and 1675 by Bishop Karel z Lichtensteinu-Castelcorna, this garden was originally known as Libosad. It represents a transition from late Renaissance to early Baroque styles, incorporating both Italian and Dutch influences. The site has been managed by the National Heritage Institute and was held by the Archdiocese of Olomouc for over 350 years. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1998.

Designed in the French geometric style, the grounds feature symmetrical layouts with geometrically trimmed greenery and ornate flowerbeds. Architectural elements include a unique rotunda equipped with a Foucault pendulum, as well as various statues and fountains. The design was shaped by architects Filiberto Lucchese, Giovanni Pietro Tencalla, and Anton Arche.

The garden is a well-preserved example of 17th-century garden architecture and is open to the public. It is part of a larger heritage complex that includes the nearby castle and its associated park.
