Originally a royal Gothic castle from the 14th century, rebuilt in the Early Renaissance style into a chateau fort of the Tovačovský family of Cimburk, enlarged by the Pernštejn family, adapted in the Baroque style and in the 19th century in the Pseudo-Renaissance style. An English park, defence mounds. Historical interiors ( a chapel, the Knight’s Hall, the so-called Viennese staircase etc.) with an exposition of archaeology, ethnography, pisciculture, the Battle near Tovačov in 1866 and the Tovačov Judaica. An octagonal tower with a view. The oldest version of renaissance in our lands – the entrance portal dated from 1492.
