Chotěboř, Municipality with expanded powers in Havlíčkův Brod District, Czech Republic.

Chotěboř is a municipality with expanded powers in Havlíčkův Brod District situated in elevated terrain. The settlement occupies a position around 515 meters high near the Doubrava valley nature reserve, surrounded by the Iron Mountains protected landscape.

King John of Bohemia granted town status in 1331 because silver mining operations existed in the surrounding area. This economic foundation shaped development for generations to come.

The local castle displays Italian architectural elements and was built as a residence for the noble Kinsky family. Visitors today can walk through rooms furnished with pieces and art collections spanning different periods.

An information center located at Krále Jana 258 assists visitors exploring the town and surrounding communities. This center serves as a helpful starting point for learning about the area and its nearby natural attractions.

The Baroque structure rose between 1701 and 1702 under Count Kinsky's patronage as an Italian-influenced residence. This connection to Italian design stands out in a region where such styles are uncommon.
