Castle Chropyně

The castle complex features traditional Czech architectural elements with Renaissance design, incorporating stone walls and symmetrical windows across its facade.

Originally constructed as a defensive structure in medieval times, the castle underwent substantial modifications in 1615 to transform into a residential château.

The castle houses exhibitions dedicated to local artist Emil Filla, presenting collections that highlight regional artistic traditions and Czech cultural identity.

The castle operates regular guided tours throughout the day, with access from the town center via a marked pedestrian path near the train station.

The castle sits among a network of historical fish ponds, constructed in the 15th century, which remain active components of the local landscape.
