Bečov nad Teplou Chateau, Gothic castle and Baroque chateau in Bečov nad Teplou, Czech Republic.
The architectural complex includes a Gothic castle, Renaissance palace, and Baroque chateau situated on an elevated position near Karlovy Vary.
The castle's first written record dates to 1317, founded by the Lords of Rýzmburk, while the settlement received town status in 1399.
The chateau houses the St. Maurus Reliquary, a 13th-century Romanesque goldsmith masterwork containing remains of saints including John the Baptist.
The site offers specialized guided tours, including children's programs, with access to a botanical garden and boat rides on the nearby pond.
The St. Maurus Reliquary remained hidden in the castle chapel from 1939 until its rediscovery in 1985, now displayed in the blue dining hall.
