zámek Jinonice
Castle · Czechia
Checked
Riders working up out of Prokopské údolí into Jinonice pass this low Baroque chateau on its knoll above the valley, the old Schwarzenberg coat of arms and sundials still visible on its facade. A manor here is first recorded in 1088, and a fortified tvrz replaced it by the 13th century, burned out in the Thirty Years' War before Pavel Michna z Vacínova rebuilt it as a castle after 1620. The Schwarzenbergs bought the estate in 1685 and rebuilt it again, adding the farm complex and a brewery that ran until 1890, its most notable employee was František Ondřej Poupě, later the father of scientific Czech brewing, who worked here in 1792–93, while poet and language reviver Jan Antonín Puchmajer lived at the chateau from 1803 to 1805. Nationalized in 1945 and used for decades as state agricultural offices, the complex has since been restored and converted into apartments, its historic core protected as a monument since 3 May 1958.
