Dymokury Castle

Dymokury Castle is a manor house in central Bohemia that blends Renaissance design with Baroque features in its structure and layout. The building sits within grounds that show how nobles arranged their estates during the 17th century.

The castle was built in 1614 by a noble family and later underwent major changes as the region experienced political shifts. Baroque renovations in the following centuries transformed its appearance and reflected new architectural trends.

The castle reflects the changing tastes and needs of the families who lived there, with each generation leaving its mark on how the rooms were arranged and decorated. Walking through the grounds, you can sense how different eras shaped what you see today.

To see the inside, it is best to contact ahead since visits need to be arranged, while the exterior and grounds can be viewed freely during daylight. The setting is easy to reach and you can walk around the property at your own pace without restrictions.

After communism ended, the Czernin family recovered ownership of the castle through property restitution, a rare outcome in the Czech Republic. This recovery makes the castle a notable example of how some families regained their heritage in the post-1989 period.
