Zámek Dačice, Empire-style château in Dačice, Czech Republic.

The New Castle in Dačice stands at the corner of Havlíčkovo náměstí and Hradecká street, built shortly before 1591 by Italian architect Francesco Garof de Bissone for Oldřich Krajíř of Krajek. Its symmetrical entrance facade gained a risalit in the 1830s Empire reconstruction by Vienna architect Karl Schleps, and the staircase of the representative wing dates from that period. In the corridors the original Renaissance arcades were glazed in 1909, when Hans Prutscher added the neo-Baroque chapel in the south wing.

Oldřich Krajíř of Krajek had the New Castle built shortly before 1591, when registers list it as a new building; the Italian architect Francesco Garof de Bissone designed it in Renaissance style. After 1610 Vilém Dubský of Třebomyslice added or rebuilt the side and rear wings. Count Heinrich Karl von Ostein bought the estate in 1728 and had it rebuilt in Baroque style by Francesco Camelli, with sculpture by Sebald Kölbl.

The south wing houses the town museum and gallery of Dačice. In summer the courtyard hosts theatre performances and concerts, and the castle library keeps its Art Nouveau interior designed by Hans Prutscher.

The castle stands at the corner of Havlíčkovo náměstí and Hradecká street, with the red-marked hiking trail from Borek and the yellow trail to Toužín passing nearby; cycle routes 1006 and 1242 also lead to it. The grounds and park are easily reached on foot or by bike, and a nature trail runs along the park's edge.

During the 1909 courtyard works, Renaissance arcades were uncovered when the corridor windows were rebuilt; the arches were glazed, and Hans Prutscher added a neo-Baroque chapel in the south wing and the Art Nouveau library interior.
