Description
The lords of the House of Poličan and Hustířan lived in the château from 1382. In 1540 – 1560, Bílé Poličany came into the ownership of Sigmund and Albrecht von Schmiritz and the widely branched House of Wallenstein ruled there from the mid-16th century. Albrecht von Wallenstein became a significant owner in 1623. The original wooden fortress was not rebuilt as a stone one until 1657. During the first half of the 18th century, the chateau was reconstructed once again. It has been the property of the Hasičská vzájemná pojišťovny, a.s. since 1999 and that company has undertaken significant reconstruction work there since 2004.
