Zámek Bzí

Dolní Bukovsko, Czechia, Czech Republic (Czechia)

---

Zámek Bzí is a historic château in the village of Bzí near Dolní Bukovsko in South Bohemia.

The site began as a medieval fortress mentioned as early as the 14th century and was rebuilt into a Baroque four-wing château around 1655 after suffering damage during the Thirty Years’ War. Over the centuries, the estate was owned by several noble families, including the Schwarzenbergs, who expanded the gardens and adapted the château for aristocratic use.

The complex includes a courtyard, agricultural buildings, a former chapel dedicated to Saint Florian, and a pond. In the 20th century, the château was used for agricultural and industrial purposes and appeared as a filming location in Czech movies such as Zlatí úhoři and Svatba upírů. After years of decline, it was acquired by new owners in the 2020s and is undergoing restoration, with plans to revive the estate for cultural, hospitality, and public use.
