Kladno Chateau, Cultural monument in Kladno, Czech Republic.

The three-wing chateau features a two-story building with Gothic basement foundations and displays elements of Czech Baroque architecture throughout its structure.

Between 1738 and 1740, architect Kilián Ignaz Dientzenhofer transformed the Renaissance building into its current Baroque form, preserving the original Gothic basement.

The Chapel of St. Lawrence within the west wing contains frescoes by J. K. Kolar and functions as a venue for religious services and marriages.

The chateau houses multiple institutions including the City Gallery, Sladecek Homeland Museum, and a branch of the City Library in Kladno.

The structure began as a fortress called Horejsi and evolved through Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque periods, maintaining elements from each architectural phase.
