This impressive South Bohemian monument proudly rises on a rocky spur above the Stropnice River, in the southwestern part of the town of the same name. Originally a medieval castle, it transformed over the centuries into a chateau residence, which gives it a unique architectural character. Due to its extraordinary historical value, the complex was listed among national cultural monuments. Currently, this residence is in the hands of the state and under the administration of the National Heritage Institute. Visitors here can admire the preserved historical interiors during tours and soak in the atmosphere of ancient times.
