Jinonice Castle, Baroque castle in Jinonice, Prague 5, Czech Republic.

Jinonice Castle is an early Baroque estate at Na Vidouli 1 in Prague's Jinonice district, protected as a cultural monument since 3 May 1958. Its entrance bears the alliance coat of arms of Ferdinand von Schwarzenberg and Anna Maria von Sulz, and Jan Adolf von Schwarzenberg had the farmstead and chateau rebuilt in 1685, with Neoclassical alterations in 1815.

A manor stood here from 1088; the fortress that followed was first recorded in 1621, when Albrecht Pfefferkorn was posthumously sentenced to lose the Jinonice estate for the 1618 anti-Habsburg uprising. After the Thirty Years' War Pavel Michna of Vacínov founded the château, which passed by auction to Ferdinand von Schwarzenberg. Jan Adolf von Schwarzenberg rebuilt it in 1685, classicist changes followed in 1815, and the family held it until confiscation in 1945.

The alliance coat of arms above the entrance recalls Ferdinand von Schwarzenberg and his wife Anna Maria von Sulz, who acquired the estate at auction. The Schwarzenbergs held Jinonice until 1945, and their name remains tied to the site's identity.

The site is relatively easy to reach and located in a well-connected district of Prague. Visitors should be aware that the interior is currently undergoing renovation and viewing opportunities may be limited.

A brewery stood on the south side of the courtyard, producing up to 14,000 hectolitres of beer a year before it ceased operation in 1890. The early Baroque fortress that preceded the château vanished and was only located again by archaeological excavation in 2018, led by Tomasz Cymbalak of Archaia Praha and the National Heritage Institute.
