Zámek Dlouhá Loučka is a Baroque château in the village of Dlouhá Loučka in the Olomouc Region of the Czech Republic.

It was built in 1708-1709 by the Teutonic Order on the site of an older fortress and served as a summer residence, administrative center, and later as a hospital for the order. During the Napoleonic Wars, the château was used as a large military hospital, and hundreds of soldiers were treated there. In the 19th century, the building was remodeled in a Classical style, and a chapel and landscaped park were added.

Over the years, the château served many purposes, including a residence, hospital, and administrative facility. After suffering a major fire in the 1980s, it fell into serious disrepair. Although the building is currently closed to the public, its historic park remains a notable local attraction and reflects the estate’s former grandeur.
