The rich constructional development of the present Romantic building began as early as the Middle Ages in connection with the noted House of Liechtenstein, which utilized Lednice for representation purposes since the 18th century. The manor had therefore altered its appearance according to the governing styles of architecture. The present appearance of Lednice is a result of the Neo-Gothic reconstruction of 1846 - 1858, designed by Georg Wingelmüller. The ostentatious Baroque riding school edifices, designed by the architect Johann B. Fischer of Erlach have been preserved since the end of the 17th century. There is a glass house, built in 1843 - 1845, according to the project by P. H. Desvignes, leaning to the manor on the eastern side. A perfect frame for the manor is the French garden and its vast provincial park, one of the largest in the Czech Republic. There are many noteworthy decorative constructions within it, for instance the Temple of the Three Graces, the Temple of Apollon and several other structures. There is a graceful minaret protruding from the rich park green within a sight of the manor. This minaret is a singular architectonic monument, constructed based on the design of Josef Hardmuth in 1797 - 1804.
