Castle Hradiště, Gothic Revival castle in Hradiště, Czech Republic

Castle Hradiště stands on the southern edge of Blovice, in the Hradiště district. Its four wings enclose a courtyard closed off by the southern tract in 1845–1846, when the castle was rebuilt in Neoclassical style; the Gothic Revival look dates from the 19th-century Pálffy era. South of the castle is a group of farm buildings.

Hradiště is first documented in 1422, when Sigismund of Luxembourg's Nuremberg charter names a knight Jan Hradišťský; the fortress itself is recorded in writing only in 1545. The Kolovrat family rebuilt it in 1785–1795, and in 1845–1846 a classicist reconstruction closed the courtyard with a south wing, creating the four-wing layout.

The castle has housed the Museum of the Southern Pilsen Region since 2000, when it passed into the administration of the Plzeň Region. Its displays cover the history of the Blovice area, and the building itself preserves wall paintings probably made under Karel Rudolf Karel of Svárov in the 17th century.

The castle stands on the southern edge of Blovice, in the Hradiště district, and is the seat of the Museum of the Southern Pilsen Region. The grounds are entered from the town side; the former farm buildings south of the castle are only partly in use.

The chapel of St. Andrew was adapted in 1858, and Jan Nepomuk Karel Kolovrat had a separate Chapel of the Holy Cross with a family tomb built at the church of St. John the Evangelist in 1833, where remains of several Kolovrat family members were moved from Březnice and Prague.
