Nebílovy Castle, Baroque château in Nebílovy, Czech Republic

Nebílovy Castle is a baroque residence 16 km south of Plzeň, built in 1706–1719 on a plan of two opposing U-shapes. The smaller front wing with a clock tower holds living rooms; the larger rear wing contains the great ballroom and the Chapel of St Anthony. Arcaded corridors with flat balustraded terraces once linked the wings.

The original Renaissance manor was transformed into its current baroque form through the work of architect Jakub Auguston. The designs were created by the renowned baroque architect Johann Lukas von Hildebrandt.

The chapel of St Anthony of Padua, saved from collapse and reconsecrated in 2001, now hosts weddings arranged by the National Heritage Institute. The large dance hall holds Antonín Tuvora's ceiling painting, removed in 1967 in over 600 pieces and restored by 2013.

The castle is not open year-round: the front wing with its baroque and rococo furnishings and Venetian chandeliers was first opened to the public on 4 July 1998, and the rear wing with the dance hall followed later. The grounds lie 16 km south of Plzeň in the village of Nebílovy.

The 1784–1789 structural repairs were carried out by Václav Haberditz and Johann Ignaz Palliardi, a six-year campaign that gradually secured the building structurally and statically. The arcaded gallery beside the chapel was converted into a distillery between 1837 and 1868.
