Červená Lhota Castle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Červená Lhota Castle is situated about 15 km north-west of Jindřichův Hradec in south Bohemia, Czech Republic. Its picturesque Renaissance building is a destination of thousands of tourists every year.
The first mentions of this castle date back to the 15th century. Its name Červená Lhota meaning "red village" can be explained by the colour of castle's walls or roof. The castle was the property of families Slavata (Vilem Slavata of Chlum) and Stillfried. At the end of 18th century German composer Carl Ditters von Dittersdorf was guest here. In 1945 the castle was confiscated by the state and opened to public.
