Chateau Sloup, Neoclassical château in Sloup v Čechách, Czech Republic

Chateau Sloup is a neoclassical château in Sloup v Čechách featuring a long, symmetrical building with regular rows of windows and restrained decoration. The structure incorporates both above-ground rooms and lower levels that connect to older underground spaces beneath.

Josef Jan Maxmilián Kinský took over the Sloup estate in 1729 and had a new château built in 1730–1733 in the high Baroque style, as the old Berkovice manor no longer suited him and burned down in 1733. The design is attributed to a planner from the circle of Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer. The Kinský family held it until 1941, when it passed by inheritance to the Preysing family; in 1945 it was nationalised under the Beneš decrees.

The château's name refers to the village, not a family; it was the main seat of the Sloup branch of the Kinský family from the 18th to the 20th century. In 1941 it passed by inheritance to the related Preysing family, and since 2002 it has served as a retirement home.

The château stands in Sloup v Čechách, north of the chapel of St John of Nepomuk built in 1738–1740. The building has served as a retirement home since 2002 under the Liberec Region, so interiors are not open as a museum; visitors see the exterior, the courtyard and the park.

The château's grounds include a walled utility garden with a small clearing, a fountain and a statue of Neptune dating from 1755. North of the château, the Chapel of St John of Nepomuk was built in 1738–1740 and for a time served as the family tomb.
