Luhov Chateau, Baroque chateau in Luhov, Czech Republic.

Luhov Chateau is a baroque structure composed of multiple connected wings built with stone and decorated with period architectural details. The layout integrates defensive elements typical of fortified strongholds with the residential features of a noble residence.

The structure began as a fortified stronghold and was gradually transformed into a residential chateau with the addition of baroque style elements. This evolution reflects the shift from military purposes to noble living quarters in Czech territories.

The chateau's name comes from the village of Luhov, first recorded in 1367 as a fortress held by the Chotěšov monastery. The chapel, consecrated in 1784, has casemate windows and ceiling frescoes. The granary retains Renaissance sgraffito, and damaged statues are stored in an outbuilding.

The chateau is open to visitors during visiting hours; it is not a private residence. The grounds also contain stables, a park with a boundary wall, a granary with Renaissance sgraffito, and damaged statues stored in an outbuilding. The gate with the coats of arms of the Dohalský and Steinbach families was demolished in the 1950s, so the present entrance differs from the historical one.

The old stronghold vanished long ago: only a 35-metre island ringed by a 15–25-metre moat survives beside the chateau. The gate bearing the arms of the Dohalský and Steinbach families was demolished in the 1950s, and damaged statues are now stored in an outbuilding.
