Karlova Koruna Chateau, Baroque chateau in Chlumec nad Cidlinou, Czech Republic.

The chateau features three single-story wings surrounding a central circular structure, forming a distinctive crown-shaped layout on the hilltop location.

Architects Jan Santini Aichel and František Maxmilián Kaňka designed this residence for Franz Ferdinand Kinsky between 1721 and 1723.

The building received its name Karlova Koruna to commemorate Emperor Charles VI Habsburg's coronation as the King of Bohemia.

The chateau opens from April through October, with guided tours available Tuesday through Sunday, offering insights into the Kinský family history.

The central cylindrical hall spans three floors without requiring connecting passages to the surrounding wings, demonstrating advanced architectural planning.
