Žleby Castle, Gothic castle in Žleby, Czech Republic

The stone fortress contains vast collections of weapons and period furniture distributed across multiple wings connected by a central courtyard.

Originally constructed in 1289 as a Gothic stronghold by the Lichtenburk family, the castle underwent major reconstruction between 1849 and 1868.

The castle interior displays numerous leather wallpapers, painted glass windows, and furniture pieces that reflect 19th-century aristocratic lifestyles.

Visitors can choose between two guided tours: a one-hour basic route through the chapel and east wing or an extended version including the tower.

The castle grounds include a 130-hectare game park that maintains a population of rare white deer and hunting birds.
