Střílky Castle

Střílky Castle is a Renaissance building in the Czech Republic featuring two main structures with prismatic towers and three separate courtyards arranged across multiple levels of the grounds. Both Renaissance and Baroque design elements are visible in its construction and layout.

Construction began in 1619 and the building later transformed into a Baroque residence under Antonin Amand of Petrvald's ownership. This shift shows how the property adapted to the evolving preferences of its noble inhabitants.

The layout of the rooms and courtyards reveals how the residents organized their daily lives and entertained guests across the different levels of the property. The spaces show the tastes and priorities of the families who lived here over the centuries.

The property remains privately owned and does not currently offer regular public access to the interior spaces. Those interested should inquire in advance about any occasional opportunities to view the exterior grounds.

Architect Josef Cyrano de Bolleshausu and sculptor Gottfried Fritsche created notable features including a Neptune fountain in one of the courtyards. This fountain shows the artistic investment the owners made in designing the grounds.
