The rococo palace was built between 1774 and 1777 on behalf of Count Johann Anton Joseph Harbuval-Chamaré. The architect Josef Jäger designed it in the style of French summer residences. That is why it is also called “Little Schönbrunn” or “Bohemian Versailles”. The castle complex consists of the entrance gate with an adjoining French garden, the administration building on both sides, the grain store and the English park with the sandstone statues. Uphill are the ruins of the Gothic castle, which was demolished during the construction of the castle and served as building material.
