Uherčice Chateau
Zámek Uherčice
A Renaissance and Baroque chateau under restoration. Its unfinished halls keep their weathered original state, carrying a strong sense of the passage of history.
Uherčice Chateau was converted from a medieval fortress and features an arcaded Renaissance courtyard and a Baroque hall. After the Second World War it was used for a long time as barracks and a warehouse, and it suffered heavy damage. It is now being gradually restored by the National Heritage Institute. The visiting route lets you see both the restored, splendid rooms and spaces still under repair, which gives the chateau a distinctive character. It is surrounded by an English-style garden. Admission is about 150 Czech koruna, and it is open in summer. The chateau is about 45 km from Znojmo and can be combined with a visit to Bítov.
