Hrádek u Nechanic, Gothic Revival château in Hrádek, Czech Republic.

Hrádek u Nechanic is a château near the town of Nechanice, in the Hradec Králové Region of the Czech Republic, built in a mix of Gothic Revival and Neoclassical styles. The building has several towers, battlements, and richly decorated interiors that give it the appearance of a medieval English manor.

Hrádek u Nechanic was built in 1839–1857 as the representative seat of Count František Arnošt of Harrach, on Lubenský Hill; the Harrachs had bought the estate in 1829. The design adapted an unrealised scheme by English architect Edward Buckton Lamb for Crewe Hall, reworked in detail by Karl Fischer. Shortly after completion a military hospital was set up here during the Battle of Hradec Králové.

The castle's interiors hold antique building elements and furniture brought mainly from Italy and Austria, including carved wooden ceilings and portals. St. Ann's Chapel displays late-15th-century paintings by German masters, and there is a set of 18th-century pictures of anatomical anomalies.

The château stands on a slight rise about 800 m northwest of Hrádek village and 2.8 km southeast of Nechanice, with the entrance front facing the lawn and hedges behind a low balustrade. The two wings meet the central tower at an angle of roughly 110°, so the plan reads as a wide-open letter V; the west wing holds St. Ann's Chapel. The park covers 30 hectares of meadows and deciduous and conifer trees, some of exotic origin.

The design adapts an unrealised mid-17th-century scheme by the English architect Edward Buckton Lamb for remodelling Crewe Hall; the Austrian architect Karl Fischer revised it and designed all the interiors. The result earned the nickname "Little Hluboká" for its resemblance to Hluboká Castle in southern Bohemia.
