About Zidlochovice Chateau

Zidlochovice is the true center of the area south of the metropolis city of Brno, which is at the base of the highest hill, Vyhon (355 meters above sea-level). Belonging to the Dyjsko Svaratecky Uval on the river Svratka, Zidlochovice city is famous and characterized by its chateau, which is well known as the Moravian residence of the first Czech President, T.G. Masaryk, and as the birth place of prominent Habsburgs.

From many archaeological artifacts, historians have discovered that this city and the neighborhood were settled by many different cultures and peoples from the early ages. The first written documentation of Zidlochovice dates back to 1237. Over the centuries, Zidlochovce was home to some of the most prominent European families such as the Luxemburgs, the Ditrichsteins and the Habsburgs.

Zidlochovice Chateau is currently situated as a water fortress. This fortress was rebuilt into castle by Fridrich from Zerotín. During the years 1722 - 1728 , Count Sinzendorf gave the castle a baroque look , and then during the years 1844 - 1845, the castle was transformed into the style as you see it today by the Habsburgs. Since 1919, the beautiful and historic castle has belonged to the Government and is used as a representative place.
