Chateaux in Milešov, Renaissance chateau in Milešov, Czech Republic.

Châteaux in Milešov is a structure combining Renaissance and Baroque styles, featuring carved stonework on its exterior and evenly spaced windows across its facades. The building displays Italian design combined with local construction methods that shape its overall character.

A castle existed here by the 14th century; its first known owner was Petrman of Milešov in 1391. The Kaplíř family rebuilt it as a single-wing Renaissance château around 1600, and after Thirty Years' War damage Karel Kaplíř lowered the tower and added a storey in the early 1650s. Zdeněk Kašpar Kaplíř began further work in 1662–1663, with Antonio della Porta linked to the final phase.

The château's name comes from the village of Milešov, first recorded with Petrman z Milešova in 1391. The Kaplíř family, who held the estate from around 1420, commissioned the chapel of St. Angelus Custos in the first half of the 18th century. In the park, the casino's central hall, called sala terrena, hosted musical performances while the side retreats served for conversation.

The château stands on a rocky hill south of Šibeník hill, with the Milešovka peak rising to the north. The grounds are not secured and the garden casino (gloriet) is in a dilapidated state, so keep to safe paths. The building is a protected cultural monument and was used as a retirement home until the end of 2023.

The building was designed by an Italian architect yet incorporated local construction practices rather than simply copying Italian styles. This fusion shows how architectural ideas traveled and adapted to regional traditions during that era.
