Château Trpísty

Château Trpísty (Schloss Trpist in German, Zámek Trpísty in Czech) is a late baroque 18th century manor house located at Trpísty in the Plzeň Region of the Czech Republic. It was built between 1723 and 1729 for Count Prosper Anton Josef von Sinzendorf on the site of a medieval castle. Because the house archive was lost in the late 18th century, the identity of the architect is not clear. Recent research favours the authorship of Jakub Auguston, an architect of Italian descent living in Pilsen.
