Hliňany

Řehlovice, Czechia, Czech Republic (Czechia)

---

Hliňany is a small village that forms part of the municipality of Řehlovice in the Ústí nad Labem Region of Czechia.

The settlement was first mentioned in written records in 1397 and has a long history connected to nearby noble estates and local landowners. Its most notable landmark is Hliňany Chateau, a Baroque residence created around 1650 when the Nostic family rebuilt an older medieval fortress and made the village the administrative center of their estate.

The château was later expanded in the 18th century and even hosted Emperor Joseph II during a visit in 1778. In the 20th century, the château was used as a medical and social care facility. Today, Hliňany remains a quiet, sparsely populated locality whose historical significance is largely tied to its château and its role in the region’s aristocratic past.
