This originally Gothic stronghold with a moat was built in the 14th century by the Lords of Janovice, an important Bohemian noble family. It was converted in the 16th century into a Renaissance chateau, and in the late 19th century Counts Vratislav of Mitrovice made the final alterations in Romantic-Neogothic style.
A large nature-landscape chateau park was also completed at that time. Vrchotovy Janovice is linked with the name of Baroness Sidonie Nádherná of Borutín, an art-loving noble lady and a friend of many Czech and European artists that she often hosted at her summer residency. Today, the chateau holds exhibitions dedicated to Rainer Maria Rilke, the Austrian writer Karl Kraus, Czech society of the 19th century, as well as to Czech bell making.

Vrchotovy Janovice Chateau

Most probably while in possession of Wolfgang Henneg the château was rebuilt in baroque style. At the time of Jan Václav Buben of Litice (1733) in the Southern wing the château chaple of St. Anne  was built with its richly decorated entrace port from the courtyard. The space of the chaple pervades the groundfloor and the first floor of the château. Between 1850 and 1860 the château was rebuilt in Neo-Gothic style by Jana Tieglová of Lindenkron.
The original altar was destroyed during the war. The current altar was brought to the chaple from the church of archangel Michael of the village of Lauterbach near Sokolov. The most precious work is the painting of St John the baptist. The fresco of Madona Svatohorská beyond the vault is noteworthy too. The ceremony regularly takes place here every last Sunday in the month.
The château is a three-wing, three-storey building finished with a gable roof with a small tin spire. The front facade of the central part is divided by three-part arcades. The entrance into the chaple of St Anne faces a smaller courtyard that is closed from both sides by the two wings. On the sides of the entrance there are the sandstone statues of St Leonard and St Felix. Both are good quality works from the first half of the 18th centry, yet today in a very bad condition, headless and rather weathered.
The area of the château Osečany is in total 7,5 hectares , the built-up area of which is only 645 square metres, the rest being taken by the château park with numerous full-grown woody plants, roads, garages and a part of granary.
The building of the château for sale inside the château compound was proclaimed an estate cultural monument in 1998 (the château compound and the park) and is thus registred on the corresponding list ÚSKP(The Central list of cultural monuments in the Czech republic, managed by The National Heritage Institute).

Chateau Jablonná nad Vltavou is located in the middle of 3,5-hectare park with two ponds, in the beautiful countryside between the Vltava and Sázava rivers, near Slapy Dam.
Major reconstruction of the Chateau was carried out in  1873 when it was purchased by the Prague banker  JUDr. Johann Schebek. The Chateau was converted in Noe-Classical style.

Jablonná Chateau

The predecessor of the current chateau in Líšno used to be the Castle of Léštno, established probably after 1367 when the sons of Ondřej of Dubá divided their inheritance. Beneš of Dubá who was given this section of land built his seat in a suitable spot protected by swamps and ponds. His son Václav of Dubá accompanied Master Jan Hus to Constance, however he did not join the Hussites  and therefore the Taborites besieged his castle in 1420. In 1467, in the fights of Zelenohorská jednota against  Jiří of Poděbrady,  Léštno was conquered  and reduced to rubble.  At that time the estate belonged to the Šternberk family  who later reconstructed and fortified the castle. The castle was reconstructed in 1478 and 1536. During the 30-years War, when the whole area suffered due to the consequences of the war, the local estate was ravaged too. The dishevelled castle became dilapidated and the ever changing owners had very little interest in its destiny. Between 1873 and 1884 Čeněk Daněk, a rich Prague industrialist, renovated the castle from scratch and converted it into a luxurious home, however maintained some Gothic and Renaissance Style parts. Thus the current chateau of Líšno, surrounded by a decorative park, was created. It has been built as a three winged two storey chateau around an oblong courtyard closed with a wall with a gate in the fourth side. The middle wing has a ground floor arcade. The courtyard facade of the left wing is decorated with statues of knights and a coat of arms. There is a prismatic tower in the corner of the right wing. In the park, there are pavilions, a statue of St. Florian, vases,  a pool, a pond with a meadow and woodland areas. The chateau was acquired by the state in 1945.

Čelina Chateau

The castle was apparently established in the 1280s by Prague Bishop Tobiaš as a Gothic fortification in the style of a French castle with a rectangular plan and round towers protruding from the corners, making the most effective defence possible. Accounts show that the Benešévic family from nearby Benešov were the owners in 1318, and that in 1327 the castle passed into the hands of the Šternberks. In 1468, it was conquered by the troops of George of Poděbrady after a siege that lasted almost two years.
In 1603, the estate was purchased by Dorota Hodějovská of Hodějov, who made Renaissance alterations to the old gothic fortification. The Hodějovský family fortified their property because of their active participation in the anti-Habsburg rebellion in 1620. Albrecht von Waldstein acquired the castle, and after him it was passed to Adam Michna of Vacínov. Michna gained notoriety through his repression of the serfs, who revolted against him and conquered Konopiště in 1627.
The Swedes occupied and plundered Konopiště in 1648, and the Vrtba family then purchased the dilapidated structure. After 1725, they had it transformed into a Baroque style château. The drawbridge was replaced by a stone bridge, and near the east tower a new entrance was inserted in the wall. The gate which embellished it was designed by František Maxmilián Kaňka and featured statues from the workshop of Matthias Bernard Braun. In 1746, the upper levels of four of the towers were destroyed and one tower was completely demolished. During repair of the interiors, mythological and allegorical frescoes were painted on the ceilings of the great hall, and marble fireplaces with carved decorations by Lazar Wildmann were created.
Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria bought Konopiště in 1887 with his inheritance from the last reigning Duke of Modena. He had it repaired between 1889 and 1894 by the architect Josef Mocker into a luxurious residence, suitable for a future Emperor, which he preferred to his official residence in Vienna. The extensive 225 ha English-style park, with terraces, a rose garden and statues, was established at the same time.

Konopiště Chateau

The ruins of a medieval stronghold called Starý Zámek are situated northwest of Tábor in the direction of Sedlec. Its history reaches back to the 14th century.
In 1434 the castle was unsuccessfully besieged by Prokop Holý´s troops; in the early 17th century the castle was plundered by the imperial army and never repaired afterwards. In the early 19th century stone from the ruins was used for construction in the nearby village. Parts of towers have remained from the castle and some walls of the new palace and the gate. Due to its favourable location in forested countryside above two ponds this is a widely sought after location.
