he castle is mentioned for the first time in documents from 1347. At that time, it belonged to Hannus Wusthub, and in 1428 it passed into Czech hands after the death of Jan of Ziębice-Opava, Duke of Ziębice-Opava. During the Hussite wars it was seriously damaged, but in the first half of the fifteenth century it was rebuilt. In 1593, the castle was enlarged and rebuilt, and in 1622 it was destroyed again, this time by fire. The reconstruction took place again in the years 1675-1677.
In the years 1700-1730, the castle tower was rebuilt according to the design of Andreo Carove, then the castle tower was demolished. During the last reconstruction in 1796, the outer bailey was demolished, and a representative hall was added to the castle and the northern wing was enlarged. Until 1868, this hall was used by the Evangelical community, and the rest of the castle was occupied by offices. At the beginning of the twentieth century, the building was restored.
