Zámek Úholičky

Roztocká , Czech Republic (Czechia)

---

Úholičky Castle in the Czech Republic originated on the site of a medieval fortress with early mentions dating back to the 14th century when the village was known as Hoholice and belonged to the Prague Chapter of St. Vitus.

Over centuries, it changed ownership multiple times, including notable owners like the Waldstein family in the 19th century, who built the current castle structure in the second half of that century. In 1909, the castle was renovated and expanded by Josef Wohanka, a prominent entrepreneur and politician known for his contributions to agriculture, especially beet seed breeding.

The castle and its estate were part of intensive agricultural development and seed production that reached international markets. Over time, the estate included a landscaped park and was an important local center. The castle has historical significance due to its ties with regional history, agriculture, and prominent owners who influenced local development.
