Chateau Stráž nad Nežárkou is a Baroque feudal residence, which was developed after major reconstruction of former Gothic castle. The chateau is surrounded by a large park in the valley of river Nežárka. From the original castle, there can be found only a Gothic tower with an edge in the main facade. The chateau is known, in the first place, in connection with the name of world famous opera singer Ema Destinnová, who carried out minor adjustments in the chateau and who mainly took advantage of its position by the New River, so she would satisfy her great passion for fishing. Closer insight into her personality is possible in a museum in Jindrichuv Hradec.
