This originally Baroque chateau was built by the Lords of Vrbno in the early 18th century and has retained its classicist appearance since the second half of the 19th century. As early as in the 18th century a park was created here. It is dominated by an amply decorated Sun Gate.
The so-called Court of Honour that gives entry to the garden is decorated by statues by Matyáš Bernard Braun. At the present time there is a collection of musical instruments on display and an exhibition entitled „Games and Toys of Little Aristocrats.“
