I did a google search and the castle I was trying to remember is Konopiste Castle.

A pic from the net and a paragraph from a "tour" site.

Konopiste castle was built in the 14th century, however current appearance was determined in the 19th century. At that time the castle used to be visited by the heir to the Habsburg throne, Ferdinand D'Este , who was assassinated in Sarajevo in 1914. The castle is also interested for its gun collection and hunt trophies.

I will try to dig out some photos or whatever. It is worth a visit.

More photos found on the net.






One or two trophies ...




Have a look further down this corridor. Most of the many many corridors were like this.




The indoor shooting range. Articulated targets.
