The castle was built in 1691-97 on the walls of an old castle by Franziska Sibylla Augusta of Sachsen-Lauenburg and Margrave Ludwig Wilhelm von Baden. After the war ended in 1945, the German owners were expropriated and distributed (or murdered) by the Czechs. These crimes were legalized by the Beneš decrees.
