Strazky Chateau, Renaissance manor house and museum in Kežmarok District, Slovakia.
Strazky Chateau is a three-winged manor house containing exhibition halls in Kežmarok District, Slovakia. The interior displays historical furniture, accessories, and an extensive collection of paintings from different periods.
The building was erected in 1570 on the foundations of a Gothic castle and received its current form between 1618 and 1628 with a square courtyard layout. These reconstructions shaped the architecture that visitors see today.
The place is named after a nearby village and preserves works by painter Ladislav Mednyánszky, whose family had ties to the region. Visitors today can see his paintings displayed in the exhibition rooms and gain insight into the artistic tastes of former residents.
The manor is open daily but lies somewhat away from the main town and requires a dedicated visit. Wheelchair users should check in advance whether accessibility meets their needs.
The grounds behind the manor feature trees and paths in 19th-century English style, creating a contrast with the Renaissance architecture. A historical library holds rare printed books and manuscripts spanning several centuries.
