Construction of Osvračín Chateau began in 1720 based on a design by the renowned Baroque architect František Maxmilián Kaňka. The chateau was designed as a hunting lodge with a Baroque garden; it also includes a greenhouse that was formerly heated.

History

The Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary is first mentioned in 1384. It was originally Gothic and dates from the 14th century; its tower is 27 metres high.

A former early Gothic castle stood east of Osvračín. Osvračín Castle fell into disrepair after it was no longer used as the owners’ residence. Remains of walls with a loophole window were uncovered at the castle site.
