Dobřejovice Chateau

In the 16th century a Renaissance-style construction saw the gothic walls give way to four wings and a central courtyard but the whole property was then destroyed in the thirty years was.
The estate was rebuilt by the Roman Emporer Counsel  Antonia Binago who was the owner from 1669 -1685 and in the latter part of the century the property was owned by Jesuits. The Desfours family were the main owners in the 17th century and they established the ornamental gardens and orangery, but towards the end of the century the castle was used mainly for farming purposes.
The castle was reconstructed in the Classical Style and once again used as a place of residence when it was bought by  Count Jan Nepomuk Nostic-Rieneck in 1800 and remained in the family after his death. His daughter married Count Arnošt Emanuel Silva-Tarouca in 1885.

Koloděje 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 Chodov water fort dates back to 1185, when it was owned by the Vyšehrad Chapter. In the 19th century neo-classical arcades were added, and the north tower was demolished.

Chodov Fort

The first written records of the estate are found in the register of the Vyšehrad priory of 1273. At that time it was a fort providing safe haven for local peasants from an armed attack. The Hussites lead by Jan Žižka of Trocnov took it in 1420 while rallying to the defence of Prague against Emperor Sigmunds army. The premises then passed into the ownership of the city of Prague, frequently changing occupiers throughout the 16th century. This may have caused its considerable neglect and by 1620 it was reported as deserted and derelict.
Following a period of serving as a spiritual retreat to the St. Havel Church in the Old City of Prague, and receiving further damage from religious wars between Catholics and Protestants, the estate was revived in 1627 by the Carmelite Knights Order who acquired it into their ownership by Emperor Ferdinand IIs decree of 27th April of that year. The entire premises of the St. Havel fort and settlement were one of two real estates granted to the Order, the other being a church in Vienna. The purpose of this gift was to provide the Knights with sufficient income to build a monastery attached to the St. Havel church. By then the Order had relaxed its strict rules and was allowed to own real estate. Their income from the estate, however, initially failed to provide adequate means and they were granted a ten-year permission to supplement their income by alms collection. A later improvement of their finances enabled the Carmelites to restore and enlarge their Krč estate and to establish their summer retreat here in impressive nature surroundings. A new chapel, built around that time, was dedicated to St. Havel and its religious services were open to the local population.

Krč Chateau

In 1785, the Zbraslav monastery was closed, and Komořany devolved to the secular trust, which sold the Komořany chateau, grounds and sheepfold to the Prince of Oettingen-Wallerstein 40 years later. In 1866, it was sold to an Albertan knight.
In the meantime, the Komořany cadastral municipality was created, and in the 19th century, they formed a shared political community with Točná. For that reason, in Malý Otto's dictionary of 1904, Komořany is listed simply as a chateau near the village of Točná. http://revolvy.com/

A royal hunting castle was situated in Zbraslav in the early 13th century. In 1292, king Wenceslass II founded the a Cistercian Aula Regia Monastery here. Throughout its history, the monastery was repeatedly attacked and destroyed by enemy troops but the monks always restored it and in the 17th century it was rebuilt according to plans by J. B. Santini and F. M. Kanka. In the 18th century, the monastery was closed and bought by Prince of Oettingen, who transformed it into a chateâu with beautiful gardens. At the beginning of the 20th century the Bartons of Dobenin acquired the chateau and have owned it until today.
