Šternberk State Castle is a medieval castle on a spur of the Low Jeseníky hills in the Olomouc Region, first documented in 1269. Founded by Zdeslav of Šternberk, it passed to the Liechtenstein family at the turn of the 18th century, who had it restored in the neo-Gothic Romantic historicist style after 1886. The interiors house a rich collection of artworks from across Europe, a Renaissance "Visiting Card Hall" with unique ridge vaults, and a Gothic chapel with fragments of medieval wall paintings. Designated a national cultural monument in 2001, it is administered by the National Heritage Institute.
