Malá Skála Castle, Art Nouveau château in Malá Skála, Czech Republic.

Malá Skála Castle is an Art Nouveau château in the town of Malá Skála featuring curved lines and nature-inspired ornamental details. The structure combines stone construction with large windows and interior spaces defined by organic forms and decorative moldings.

Malá Skála was first mentioned in writing in 1422, when it belonged to the Štěpanice branch of the Valdštejn family. Karel z Vartemberka had the castle built on the site of an earlier fortress in 1565. After 1620 it passed to Albrecht z Valdštejn and was granted as a fief to Mikuláš Desfours, serving mainly as the estate manager's residence.

The name Malá Skála, used since 1775 to distinguish the estate from Hrubá Skála, means "small rock". The writer Jarmila Glazarová was born here, where her father worked as estate manager; she is buried in the nearby forest cemetery that Franz Zacharias Römisch established in 1813 together with his own tomb.

The castle is privately owned and not open to the public, so visits are limited to viewing the exterior from the surrounding area. The building stands above the right bank of the Jizera River in Malá Skála, and the adjacent terraced park and garden with rococo vases can be seen from outside.
