Moravská Třebová Castle, Renaissance castle in Moravská Třebová, Czech Republic.
Moravská Třebová Castle is a converted Renaissance building in its namesake town with multiple exhibition rooms across different floors. These rooms display historical objects, furnishings, and architectural elements from different periods of the past.
An original fortress from the 13th century was rebuilt into a Renaissance castle in 1485 by the Boskovic family, marking a new architectural era. This transformation shows how medieval fortifications in the region became early modern noble residences.
The castle displays how nobility lived across centuries through furniture and textiles from various periods extending into the 20th century. Visitors see how the taste and lifestyle of the noble families changed over time.
Access is available through regular entrances, with visits taking several hours to explore properly. Good orientation helps since exhibitions spread across multiple levels and it is easy to lose track of where you are.
The castle holds a remarkably large torture exhibition considered among the largest from medieval Moravia. In the building's tower there is also an interactive exhibition about alchemy with experiments visitors can try themselves.
