Hluboká Castle, Czech Republic🇨🇿

Hluboká Castle (Czech: Zámek Hluboká) was originally founded as a guard castle in the middle of the 13th century by Czech kings and as a royal property it was often pledged. Several noble families took turns in possession.

At the end of the 16th century, the owner of the estate was the Malovec family from Malovice, but as Protestants they lost the estate in 1619 and four years later, as compensation for war debts, the estate was confiscated from Emperor Ferdinand II. and given to Baltasar of Marradas, who had it re-Catholicised.

In 1661, the castle became the property of the Schwarzenberg family. The current appearance of the chateau complex, including the park and the surrounding landscape, was inspired by the trips of Prince Jan Adolf II. Schwarzenberg to Great Britain, who as a representative of an important and wealthy family participated the coronation of Queen Victoria in 1838.

The castle was nationalised in 1947.
