Nový Berštejn Castle, château in Nový Berštejn, Czech Republic

Nový Berštejn is a castle on a hilltop near Dubá featuring Renaissance foundations with Baroque elements added over time. The structure displays how different building styles were combined as the property changed hands and tastes evolved.

Adam Berka of Dubé built the Renaissance chateau between 1553 and 1567 to replace the ruined family castle Berkenštejn, destroyed by the Hussites. In 1634 Emperor Ferdinand II gave the confiscated estate to Richard Walter Buttler, who died the same year. The Swéerts-Sporck family had it rebuilt in Baroque style with side wings and a chapel, and the Waldsteins gave it its present pseudo-Baroque appearance at the end of the 19th century.

The chateau's name comes from the Berka family of Dubá, who built it in 1553–1567 as a replacement for the ruined family seat, Berkenštejn, now called Starý Berštejn. The estate later passed to Albrecht von Wallenstein and then to Richard Walter Buttler, rewarded for his part in Wallenstein's murder.

Nový Berštejn now operates as a hotel, so the château interiors are not open to casual visitors; the English park, two tennis courts and children's playground are part of the hotel grounds. The baroque pool has been preserved and is used. Access is from the village of Nový Berštejn, about 1 km north of Dubá.

The chateau's park was laid out in the first half of the 17th century by Count Karel Rudolf of Sweerts, and today it holds two tennis courts, a children's playground and a golf course. A Baroque pool in the park has also been restored.
