Pavel Katarin from Katar, who bought the Jimramov manor in 1588, is considered to be the founder of the chateau. He built the southern and eastern chateau wings. In the 18th century the northern wing and covered above ground corridor was built. The corridor connects the chateau with a nearby Catholic church. The last western wing was built as late as at the turn of the 18th and 19th century and the owner of the barony was the Italian Belcredi family. By adding the last wing, a quadrangle with a well came to being. In 1948 to 1991 the Railway Apprentice Training centre had its headquarters there. After the restitution in 1991, the property originally owned by the Belcredi Family, which was confiscated in 1948, was given back to the Belcredi family. The chateau is open to the public.
