History & geography

History

The first written mention of Dymokury is from 1249, when it was a possession of a local noble named Soběslav. In 1290, King Wenceslaus II ceded the estates to the Cistercian monks of the Sedlec Abbey near Kutná Hora. After changing owners several times, the fief was purchased by the noble House of Waldstein in 1573, their successors had a Renaissance castle erected from 1614 onwards. Disseized by Emperor Ferdinand II after the 1620 Battle of White Mountain, Dymokury was acquired by Albrecht von Wallenstein, who nevertheless sold it to the Austrian Khuen von Belasi dynasty shortly afterwards. They resold it to Guillaume de Lamboy, Baron of Cortesheim. From 1673, the House of Colloredo held the estate, which also included the neighbouring town of Městec Králové. They had the castle again rebuilt in a Baroque style, finished in 1787. The last noble owners were the Czernin family, who were expropriated and expelled after World War II, but regained its possession. The castle was restored after the Velvet Revolution of 1989.
