Zámek Lechovice is a historic château in the South Moravian village of Lechovice, near Znojmo.

It was originally built in the early 18th century as a summer residence for the Premonstratensian monks of Louka Monastery and later transformed into a château with Baroque and Classical architectural features. The château stands beside the pilgrimage Church of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary and is surrounded by a landscaped park. 

Over the centuries, it was owned by several noble families, including the Kübeck family, who helped shape much of its present appearance. Following World War II, the building served various purposes, including a residence for religious sisters, a vocational school, and healthcare facilities. Today, it is privately owned, protected as a cultural monument, and known for its wine cellar, event spaces, and attractive park setting.
