Jesuit college in Český Krumlov, Jesuit college in Vnitřní Město, Český Krumlov, Czech Republic.

The Jesuit college is a Renaissance four-wing, three-storey building at Horní 154, built 1586–1588 after six medieval townhouses were demolished. Its street facade and long inner courtyard carry Renaissance sgraffito decoration; the courtyard facade bears the coats of arms of the Rosenbergs and Pernštejns and the Jesuit order's symbol. Spiral staircases lead up to the former theatre hall.

Vilém of Rožmberk invited the Jesuits to counter Protestantism and founded the college in 1586 on the site of six demolished town houses; Baldassare Maggi built it by 1588 to plans by Alexander Vojt. The order ran it until 1773, when the Josephine reforms dissolved the Jesuits. It then served as a barracks until 1887, and in 1889 the Czech Savings Bank opened the Hotel Růže here.

The college's best-known professor was Bohuslav Balbín (1621–1688), and the Jesuit Kaspar Knittel (1644–1702) also taught here. The pharmacist and botanist Georg Joseph Kamel, after whom the camellia is named, worked in the college pharmacy from January 1686 to April 1687. The coats of arms of the Rosenbergs and Pernštejns and the Jesuit symbol are carved on the courtyard facade.

The building at Horní 154 now operates as Hotel Růže, so the courtyard and interior are reached through the hotel rather than a separate museum entrance. The former Theatersaal is up a spiral staircase (Schneckenstiege). The baroque pharmacy from the college is not kept here: it was sold to Johann I. von Schwarzenberg and is displayed in the Regional Museum of Český Krumlov.

The pharmacy of the Jesuit college held a baroque apothecary's collection from the mid-17th century; after the order was dissolved in 1773 it was sold to Johann I von Schwarzenberg and is now a permanent exhibit in the Regional Museum of Český Krumlov. The botanist Georg Joseph Kamel, after whom the camellia is named, worked in this college pharmacy from January 1686.
