Zámek Loučka, Cultural monument in Loučka, Czech Republic.

Zámek Loučka is a single-storey building on a rectangular plan, standing beside the Church of Christ the Good Shepherd, a former farmyard and the village road in Loučka, about 10 km west of Valašské Meziříčí. It is covered by a mansard roof with dormers, and some end roof tiles are shaped as maskarons. Fragments of Baroque fresco and stucco decoration survive inside.

Loučka was a fief of the Olomouc bishops from the early 13th century; a fortress there is first documented in 1563. The present château probably rose in the second half of the 17th century under the Kaldtschmidt family. In 1720 Jan Ignác Kaldtschmidt passed it to his brother-in-law Antonín František z Deblína, and from 1769 to 1803 Count Leopold z Lamberg made it a centre of Moravian Enlightenment visited by his brother Maxmilián Josef, called the "Moravian Democritus".

The village name Loučka is documented from the early 13th century, when the estate belonged to the fief system of the Olomouc bishops. The bishops lent the small estate to their liegemen, whose seat was a fortress first mentioned in written sources in 1563. The present château probably grew in the second half of the 17th century under the Kaldtschmidt family.

The castle sits in a village setting and can be viewed from outside, with the surrounding landscape providing a quiet backdrop. Visitors should check ahead about opening times and any available tours, as the building is in private or municipal hands.

The castle's south-east wing was demolished in the first half of the 1990s and replaced by a modern replica; the rest of the building narrowly escaped demolition in the early 21st century. The 2013 survey found a leaking roof, provisional covering and deformed trusses, with fragments of Baroque frescoes and stucco still vanishing inside.
