Třebešice Castle, Renaissance château in Třebešice, Czech Republic.
Třebešice Castle is a one-storey rural château with a three-winged plan around a square courtyard, topped by a mansard roof. Its Renaissance arcades on stone columns and two small corner towers survive, along with sgraffito on the outer façades and sandstone window surrounds. A restored water moat crossed by a bridge leads to the main entrance.
A Gothic water fortress stood here by the 13th century; the first written mention dates from 1309, when Konrád Kutner owned it. In the 1550s the fortress was rebuilt into a three-winged Renaissance château with arcades and sgraffito. A late-Baroque remodelling in 1718 added the mansard roof and sculpted façades.
The castle serves as a private residence while hosting contemporary art exhibitions in its restored rooms. This blend of historical walls with modern creative works creates an unusual experience for visitors.
The castle is located just a few kilometers from Kutná Hora and is easily accessible by road. Visitors can stay overnight as the property operates as a bed and breakfast accommodation and also hosts events with space for around 70 people.
The castle was taken over in 2015 by Italian owners who undertook a complete restoration that brought the neglected structure back to life. This comprehensive renovation preserved the historical substance while making the building fully functional for modern living.
