Raduň Castle, Empire style castle in Raduň, Czech Republic

Raduň is a three-storey, three-wing castle with three towers, rebuilt in Empire style between 1822 and 1825 to plans by Johann Anton Englisch for Count Larisch-Mönnich. The flat-ceilinged piano nobile opens onto an arcaded courtyard loggia, and the surrounding English landscape park replaced an earlier wooded park.

A Gothic fortress documented by 1320 was rebuilt as a Renaissance castle after 1550 for Jiřík Tvorkovský, chamberlain of the Opava duchy, and his wife Anna Haugvicová. After a fire in 1582 it gained three storeys, three towers and an arcaded courtyard loggia. Count Johann de Matha Larisch-Mönnich had it rebuilt in Empire style in 1822–1825 to plans by Anton Englisch.

The castle's name comes from the village of Raduň, about 7 km south of Opava. Its interiors were restored and opened to the public in July 1984, after the site had served as a school, offices and a health centre. The 19th-century library and study created for Count Gebhard Lebrecht Blücher at the end of the 19th century are among the rooms visitors see.

The castle stands about 7 km south of Opava in the village of Raduň. The interiors, restored and opened to the public in July 1984, are shown on guided tours, while the English-style landscape park around the building can be walked freely. The site is managed by the National Heritage Institute from its Ostrava office.

The estate features a restored orangery housing an ornamental garden, revealing how the nobility cultivated exotic plants on their grounds. A former granary now serves as the visitor center, creating an interesting contrast between the building's original agricultural purpose and its current use.
