Dačice Castle
The Datschitz Castle is a castle in the town of Dačice in the south of the Czech Republic and was the center of the Datschitz estate .
Building history
Perhaps there was a previous system. Structurally, the castle becomes tangible when the Kraigk family, who ruled at that time, built or rebuilt it in the Renaissance style in the 16th century .
After buying the estate and castle, Heinrich Karl Graf von Ostein had the castle rebuilt in the Baroque style. In 1809 the castle passed with an inheritance to Friedrich Karl Anton von Dalberg , who died early and passed into the hands of his brother, Karl Anton von Dalberg . He had it rebuilt in a classical style in 1832/23 by the Viennese architect Karl Schleps . The baroque garden was also converted into an English landscape garden. Further renovations in the Art Nouveau style were carried out a century later by Hans Prutscher , who also worked in Vienna . This time it was about a new building of the castle chapel and the renovation of the library. In 1940, Johannes Evangelist von Dalberg, the last Dalberger, died at Datschitz Castle . Heiress was his cousin, Maria Anna von und zu Dalberg (1891-1979), who was married to Prince Franz Emanuel Konstantin zu Salm and Salm-Salm (1876-1965). In 1945 the castle was expropriated and later used as a museum . It is under the administration of the National Monument Institute and has been classified as a national cultural monument since 2003 .
