Bravantice Chateau

This Renaissance chateau with elements of baroque reconstruction counts as one of the most visited landmarks in town. One of its most interesting nooks hides a chapel with the tombstones of the chateau’s former owners. The biggest part of the chateau collection is dedicated to the last owners of the edifice – the family of Sedlnitz of Choltice (or von Choltitz in German). Visitors may view the apartment, in which the last aristocratic denizen of the chateau lived – countess Hermína Balbína Sedlnitzká of Choltice.
The castle also offers an exposition entitled Hunting and Forestry, offering examples of hunting trophies and showing the evolution of hunting methods over the past centuries.

Klimkovice Chateau

After the abolition of the order in 1312, the castle came under the administration of the Czech King John of Luxembourg and, between 1333 and 1346, it was owned by the Moravian margrave Charles IV Wenceslas of Luxembourg, later the Roman Emperor and the King of Bohemia. From 1350 (since 1359 called castrum  Strallenberg), it was 25 later owned by the Moravian margrave John-Henry of Luxembourg, the founder of the town; then in 1375 it was taken over by his son, Jost of Luxembourg (1352-1411, the margrave of Moravia and Brandebourg). After 1380, the most important owners of the castle were members of the Moravian-Silesian branch of the family Benešovic, the lords of Kravaře (until 1433). After 1533 the castle started to deteriorate. Its oldest illustration (from 1722) shows a two-palace structure with farm buildings and two prismatic ramparts. In 1783, the outer part of the castle collapsed and the masonry was used for building purposes. The original height of the N-E fortification in the inner part of the castle remained unchanged. Between 1901 and 1903, its cylindrical tower called „bergfrit“ (height 40m, 10m in diameter) was covered with a roof and changed into a lookout designed by the famous Prague architect Kamil Hilbert. The outer ramparts were partly repaired and completed with two gates. A plaque designed by the sculptor František Juráň, was fitted into the fortification in memory of Adolf Hrstka M. D. (1864-1931, physician and former mayor of Štramberk and its indefatigable promoter). The gothic tower of the castle together with adjoining parts of the fortification (NKP) generally known as Trúba (local expression for round timber) dominantes the town. In 1994, it became its property.

Štramberk Castle

The chateau complex consists of two parts - the Upper chateau and the newer, so-called Lower chateau. Its present day form is the result of complex building development. A castle apparently already stood on the site of the chateau in the 13th century. The first written record dates back to 1372. Traces of the oldest building phase have been preserved in the cellar walls.

Fulnek Chateau

The Šostýn Castle (originally titled Schornstein) was founded in the late 13th century (built circa 1290) by Count Henry of Hückeswagen. It is possible to see following from the former castle: uncovered bergfried´s fou­ndations, basement rooms of the palace (partially reconstructed), remains of entrance buildings and other buildings, scattered masonry and grading in the rocks and in the ground. Most massive remains of fortifications are preserved trenches and ramparts and restored castle pond. While castles Hukvaldy and Starý Jičín stand on lonely hills, the Šostýn castle is located in a relatively disadvantageous position, beneath the Pískovna hill. It could be the reason for its conquest and destruction. Well has never been at the castle and the inhabitants apparently took water from the tanker. According to custom, the water chutes led from the wooden drip flaps to the tanker, because the amount of water has always been on castles rather less than more .. The most attractive finding of the castle is considered to be the Šostýnská Venus. The statue, probably part of the decorative casket, measures 53 mm and is made of ivory. Though her face reminds mysterious Egyptian influences, it was probably a product of the 13th century, imported from the Rhineland, from where the first colonists came to this area. But how it got to the local castle, is still unknown. At the highest point of the ruins of the Šostýn castle there is the Žižka´s Linden tree, which was given its name by the Club of Czechoslovak Tourists in 1933. It was named after the alleged last holder of the Šostýn castle, who belonged to the Moravian Hussite nobility. The linden´s age is about 200 – 250 years.
