Chanovice, Medieval château in Chanovice, Czech Republic

The château features Gothic foundations from the 13th century, with additions of Baroque architectural elements following reconstruction after a fire in 1780.

The Lords of Dlouhá Ves acquired the property in 1468 and subsequently changed their name to the Chanovský family, marking their connection to the estate.

The château maintains preserved interiors that demonstrate the architectural development and living standards of Czech nobility from medieval through Baroque periods.

Visitors can access guided tours of the château between April and October, with the site receiving over 21,000 annual visitors before the 2020 changes.

The château complex includes an open-air museum of folk architecture that displays traditional buildings relocated from surrounding villages of the Plzeň region.
