Roštejn Castle

Roštejn Castle (German: Burg Rosenstein) is a late Gothic castle standing on a rocky hill (677 m above sea level) in the cadastre of the village of Doupě in the Jihlava district. The castle is currently owned by the Vysočina Region and managed by the Museum of the Highlands in Jihlava.

History

The castle was built in the first half of the 14th century by the Lords of Hradec. In the second half of the 16th century, Zacharias of Hradec rebuilt it in the Renaissance style. It was also at this time that the game preserve that surrounded the castle was first mentioned in writing and was gradually used for breeding various species of game. According to the latest archaeological and structural-historical research, however, it is possible that the castle was used for hunting purposes as early as the Middle Ages.

Roštejn Castle

Roštejn Castle. A 14th Century gothique castle hidden in deep woods, one of the best preserved castles of this type in Europe. It was intended as a luxurious hunting lodge, surrounded by a game reserve. It was reconstructed in renaissance style in the 16th Century, there was originally a large bailey which was destroyed by Hussites, but the castle was able to defend itself against the besiegers. It was used for living until early 19th Century, the game reserve was cancelled a century later, the castle burned down in 1915, repairs began in 1958 and returned the original gothique-renaissance look. A new restoration project began in 2018 to renew the look, after it will be completed in 2021 the castle will be the same like in the 16th Century. Roštejn Castle 77
