• The state castle Jaroměřice upon the Rokytná River is a baroque national
cultural sight. It creates a dominant and a symbol of the town Jaroměřice upon
the Rokytná River together with St. Markéta´s cathedral.
• Today’s castle got its look after the reconstruction that was organized and
paid by the last of Questenberk - Jan Adam.
• The authors of the primary project of the baroque reconstruction of the castle
and the church could be both Johann Lucas Hildebrand and Jakub Prandtauer.
• The park on the right bank of the Rokytná river, which has an area of about 9 ha,
belongs to the castle, too.
History
• Some researchers think that there was a medieval stronghold at the place
of today‘s castle.
• The stronghold was intended to be developed at a strategically advantageous
place: on the rock protected by swamps, which the Rokytná brook creates,
from the south.
• There is no documented evidence whether the stronghold was really here the stronghold may have been developed only at the very end of the Middle Ages
- after 1498 - before its renaissance reconstruction began.
.
• Ludvík Meziříčský ( 1554-1576) let the stronghold rebuild into a castle as early
as at the beginning of his reign.
• The stronghold became the castle with three one-storey wings:
- the middle wing was turned to the square.
- both two lateral wings were turned to the river.
• The symmetrically arranged garden reached only to the river and it was
surrounded by the wall along it, in the west the garden was in the neighbourhood
of the rectory.
