Castle in Chvateruby, partly renovated.

The castle was probably built here in the 14th century. In the 16th century it was rebuilt into a Renaissance chateau. Kryštof Karel Voračický from Paběnice began to rebuild the chateau in the Baroque style in 1699, but due to lack of funds he never completed the reconstruction. In the 19th century the building was already in disrepair. Today it is privately owned.

Only some of the basic walls on which the never-completed chateau was built have survived from the castle in Chvatěruby. The main core today consists of a rectangular Renaissance palace building, which contains a Gothic wall at the cellar level. The palace is then connected to the unfinished Baroque chateau wings.
On the site of the current chateau ruins, there was originally a yeoman's fortress. At the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries, the fortress was rebuilt into a chateau by the Zajícs of Hazmburk. On the southern side, they fortified it with a rounded bastion (today house no. 6) and a deep ditch, which was also carved into the rock on the eastern side.
