Ritka je obec nedaleko Prahy. První zmínky o osade tohoto jména pocházejí z pocátku 14. století a o sto let pozdeji zde byla postavena tvrz. Postupem casu osada i tvrz upadaly. Až v 17. století byl na míste puvodní tvrze postaven barokní zámecek a hospodárství opet zacalo vzkvétat. Panství menilo majitele pomerne casto; posledními majiteli pred válkou byla rodina Brandisu.
