This Baroque building was built in 1757, with the last renovation occurring in 1913. Since 1924, the chateau has been owned by the town. On 2 January 1973, there was a fire and the portion that housed a primary school partly burnt down. Part of the chateau was rebuilt into the Moravian Cartographic Centre, which was inaugurated in 2007. Today, the chateau houses a municipal office and permanent cinema and there is a monument of the town with a memorial hall by sculptor Karel Otáhal, who lived in Velké Opatovice for 29 years and created a number of statues here.
