History

Litenčice Castle

Archaeological findings of an early mediæval burial site denote a settlement already during the Great Moravian realm. Lutincicih was first mentioned in an 1141 deed issued by Jindřich Zdík, Bishop of Olomouc, in a rental of the Spytihněv archdeaconry.

From the mid 14th century, Lyvtenczicz Castle served as the seat of several Moravian noble families. First documented in 1437, when it was held by the Zástřizl dynasty, it was largely rebuilt as a Baroque palace in the 17th century under Péter Pázmány, Archbishop of Esztergom.
