The castle of Czoch was built in the
13th century for King Waclaw II of Czechia as a defensive barrier for
the north of Czechia. At the beginning of the 15th century, the castle
lost it's military position and became a residence for noble families.
In the 16th and 17th centuries, the
castle was twice rebuilt in the style of the Renaissance. In 1793, there
was a fire in the castle, and it was partially ruined. Many pieces of
art were lost. A year later, the owners rebuilt the ruined parts. A last
renovation was made between 1909 and 1914. The interior of the castle
was modernized.
