history
The place was first mentioned in 1233 as the property of the Benedictine Convent of St. George at Prague Castle .
In the first half of the 18th century a baroque castle was built, which was called the "Upper Castle" after the construction of the second castle .
After the secularization of the monastery under Josephinism , the Jungfern Breschan estate fell to the religious fund. Until 1820 the owners changed several times, then the curator of the Protestant community in Prague, Matthias Friedrich Freiherr Riese von Stallburg, promoted modern agricultural methods for the cultivation and processing of rapeseed and sugar beet. Around 1840 he had the Lower Castle built in the Empire style . His sons, the large landowner Werner Friedrich Riese von Stallburg (1815–1887), ruler von Blahotitz and Knight of Honor of the Order of St. John and Adolf Riese von Stallburg (1822–1899), Rittmeister of the imperial army inherited the property. His descendants lost the property in 1901 due to over-indebtedness to the Prager Kreditbank, which in 1909 had found a financially strong buyer in the Austrian sugar manufacturer Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer . Bloch-Bauer housed his art and hunting trophy collection in the Lower Castle.
When the rest of the Czech Republic was broken up by the Germans , the Jewish industrialist fled and the estate was confiscated by the National Socialists. From 1939 to 1942 the Lower Castle was the residence of the Reich Protector of Bohemia and Moravia . Konstantin von Neurath and from 1941 his successor Reinhard Heydrich lived in the castle with their families. After Heydrich's death, his widow Lina lived with the children in the castle until 1945. From July 1942 an external command of the Theresienstadt concentration camp took care of the management of the property , which existed until February 11, 1944, and then a satellite camp of the Flossenbürg concentration camp with 15 prisoners who worked for Lina Heydrich. After April 13, 1945 the camp was evacuated. From 1946 to 1989 an institute for researching metals was housed in the castle.
