Zruč nad Sázavou Castle, Gothic Revival château in Zruč nad Sázavou, Czech Republic.

Zruč nad Sázavou Castle is a three-winged, two-storey château in Zruč nad Sázavou, Kutná Hora District, rebuilt in Romantic Neo-Gothic style in 1891–1894 to Jan Vejrych's plans. Its rubble-stone façade, high hipped roof, corner tower raised to three storeys, Gothic gables and dormers sit within a park that keeps parts of the older fortifications, including the Kolowrat Tower and the south-eastern bastion.

The castle was founded in the first half of the 14th century; the first written mention is from 1335, in the predicate of Heřman ze Zruče. It was rebuilt in Renaissance style around 1560 under the Kalenice family. After a fire in 1781 the west wing was not restored, and in 1891–1894 architect Jan Vejrych gave the building its present Romantic Neo-Gothic form for Adolf Schebek.

The castle has housed the Zruč nad Sázavou town council since the town bought the building and its park in 2003. The southern wing is open to visitors, and the former granary holds the exhibition "Příběh řeky Sázavy" (The Story of the Sázava River). The park keeps the Kolowrat Tower and the southeast bastion, a statue of Jan Schebek, the pond called Jezírko baronky Emmy, the Kolowrat Oak and the Kalenice Linden.

The castle is accessible from the southern bank of the Sázava River and offers guided tours through various exhibition areas. Visitors should plan for some rooms being available only with group tours or at scheduled times.

The 1781 fire ended the four-wing layout: the western wing was never rebuilt, leaving the three-wing plan seen today. The Gothic Revival rebuild of 1891–1894 by architect Jan Vejrych added a third storey to the southeast corner tower and a knight's hall. In the park, two protected trees are named after former owners: the Kolowrat Oak and the Kalenice Linden.
