Slatiňany Castle, Gothic Revival château in Slatiňany, Czech Republic.

Slatiňany is a château in Slatiňany, Czech Republic, with a three-wing U-shaped plan open to the north and an added wing on the northwest. Its east and south wings retain the Renaissance core built after 1580 by Ulrico Aostalli, while the 19th-century Neo-Gothic work added a square four-storey tower and a west wing.

A medieval fortress was first recorded in 1371 under Zbyněk Otháj of Slatiňany; its Gothic cellars survive beneath the west wing and courtyard. After 1580 Bohuslav Mazanec of Frymburk had it demolished and built a Renaissance château under the Italian architect Ulrico Aostalli. The Auerspergs held it from 1746, and in 1945 the property was confiscated by the state.

The castle houses a specialized museum dedicated to horse breeding history, with particular focus on the Old Kladruby horse breed and its development. Visitors encounter displays showing how these animals were raised and trained across generations.

The castle is open to visitors through guided tours conducted primarily in Czech with English written guides available. Advance reservations are strongly recommended, especially during the warmer months when visitor numbers peak.

Kočičí hrádek, a miniature Gothic castle at the edge of the park, was built in 1894–1898 alongside the new princely stables. It is not a toy: it belongs to the same building campaign that gave the estate its present form under the Auerspergs.
