Description

Červené Poříčí Château is a unique monument of the Saxon Renaissance in the Pilsen Region. It was built in 1611 by Mikuláš Šic of Drahenice on the site of an older fortress. Due to his participation in the uprising of the Bohemian estates, the château was confiscated from Šic in 1623 and was subsequently owned by various Bavarian noble families. The Hauben family, the relatives Törrings of Jettenbach and Klement Franz I, Duke of Bavaria, were responsible for the Renaissance reconstruction of the château.

In the nineteenth century, the château was owned by the Habsburg imperial family, specifically the dukes of Tuscany.

The château became a state property with the founding of Czechoslovakia. After the Second World War it became the headquarters of a forestry company. It was used as a residential facility for employees starting in the 1960s. The National Heritage Institute took over administration of the château in 1997. Since 2010 it has been a national cultural monument.
