Koloděje chateau, Baroque chateau in Koloděje, Czech Republic.

The Koloděje chateau displays Italian architectural influences through its meticulously crafted details and sophisticated interplay of space and light throughout the structure.

Originally built as a fortress in 1346, Charles IV acquired the property and donated it to his brother, Moravian margrave Jan Jindřich, marking its royal connections.

The cellars of Koloděje chateau served as a prison for victims of Stalinist trials during the 1950s, reflecting the complex political history.

Following its return to private ownership in 2010, the chateau remains closed to public visits, ending its previous role as a government facility.

In 1791, the Czech crown jewels were stored at Koloděje chateau for one night during their transport for Leopold II's coronation ceremony.

Location: Koloděje

Architects: Domenico Martinelli
