Hazlov Chateau Ruins
Category: Castle & Chateau Ruins Region: Cheb, Františkovy Lázně and their surroundings Town: Hazlov
Hazlov Chateau was probably founded as a castle in the 13th century. In the course of the 14th century, the originally Romanesque castle was rebuilt in Gothic style. During the Renaissance and Baroque era, the castle was gradually reconstructed into a chateau and in the 17th century, the Church of the Elevation of the Holy Cross was erected on its premises. The chateau had served as a manor until the 1950s. Since then, it has been rapidly deteriorating.
While the Church of the Elevation of the Holy Cross was saved thanks to a reconstruction in 2011, the chateau continues to decay. Nonetheless, the municipality of Hazlov is planning its renovation.
