Castle of Kinský in Valašské Meziříčí

Castle of Kinský in Valašské Meziříčí, Classicist château and museum in Krásno nad Bečvou, Valašské Meziříčí, Czech Republic

The Castle of Kinský is a one-storey classicist building with a mansard roof, built on strict axial symmetry. Its entrance façade on Zámecká Street has a three-axis central risalit with a tympanum holding a sandstone Kinský coat of arms, and the risalit façade is decorated with rustication. Two annexes adjoin the north and south sides, and an English park with the Jurkovič Pavilion, a fountain, a modern summer cinema and a Baroque putto statue lies to the west.

The site held peasant farms bought by the estate in the 1670s; during the 18th century a wooden administrative building for the Rožnov-Krásno estate replaced them. Count Ludvík Antonín of Žerotín had it rebuilt in brick with a mansard roof, finished in 1802–1803. In 1815 his daughter sold the estate to Count František Kinský; Eugen Kinský made Krásno his residence in 1854 and added a servants' wing and an English park.

The museum opened its first exhibition in 1951, two years after the castle became its home. A permanent display showed glass and tapestries from local manufactories, and from 2010 part of the upper floor recreated aristocratic living around 1900. A large reconstruction closed the old exhibits and reopened the castle on 11 March 2022.

The building is located at Zámecká Street 55 in Krásno nad Bečvou and can be easily reached by car from nearby towns. Visitors should be prepared to walk through both the interior spaces and the surrounding park grounds with their mature trees and pathways.

The English park west of the château holds a sandstone putto statue, probably from the vanished French garden of the Žerotín château in Valašské Meziříčí. The park also has the Jurkovič pavilion, a fountain and a modern summer cinema. Count Eugen Kinský likely laid out the park in the 1850s.
