Castle in Kosova Hora, Cultural monument château in Kosova Hora, Czech Republic

The Castle in Kosova Hora is a Renaissance château at house No. 1 in the village centre, in the Příbram district of the Central Bohemian Region. Its cellars preserve parts of the medieval fortress of the Lords of Landštejn, and its plaster bears sgraffito decoration restored in 1951, with the reconstruction date visible on the facade.

The village was first recorded in 1272 during gold mining under the Lords of Landštejn, who built a fortress whose cellars partly survive beneath the castle. From 1474 the estate belonged to the Lords of Říčany until 1620, when Vilém the Younger lost it after the Bohemian Revolt; it passed to Albrecht von Wallenstein and then Jan Sezima of Vrtba. A Swedish raid in 1635 brought decline and rapid changes of owners. Around 1800 the Mladota family of Solopysky bought it and carried out major repairs, adding Empire elements; in 1951 the plaster was restored to its original sgraffito form.

The village's first written mention, in 1272, is tied to gold mining under the Lords of Landštejn, who built the fortress whose cellars survive beneath the castle. The date of the 1951 restoration of the sgraffito plaster is still visible on the facade.

The castle is situated in the village center and can be easily reached from the village square. Visitors should note that the building is protected due to its endangered condition and access may be restricted.

The date of the 1951 restoration of the castle's plasterwork, returned to its original sgraffito form, is visible on the facade itself. The cellars also retain parts of the medieval fortress built by the Lords of Landštejn.
