The first information about the castle comes from 1248 and 1282, it is known as Castrum Novumm - New Castle.
In the 15th century the castle was highly destroyed by the Czech - Hungarian wars. The final blow for him was the year 1509, when it was conquered and finally destroyed. Since this time only ruins were here. In 1742, when Maria Theresa lost Silesia in war, the castle left on the territory of Prussia, and has never returned under the administration of the Czech lands. In the early 19th century was built new chateau on the grounds, which took over some matter of the former castle
It now serves as a restaurant and hotel **.
