In the former stables of the courtyard, the archduke had a covered shooting gallery built for practice: targets that move and make sounds, a billiards table and trophies. It can be seen in 30 minutes without booking, for 80 CZK. At the castle entrance, in the moat, Konopiště keeps up the tradition of having bears, begun by the Lobkowicz and continued by Franz Ferdinand: today a Himalayan bear lives there, which children look for from the bridge. Nearby, in the former orangery, the St George Museum brings together the archduke's collection on the saint (80 CZK).
