I don't know how many castle cards I've from Czech Republic, but I've quite a few and every time I swap with Emerich, I get new ones. This is Vrchlabí castle.

Vrchlabí is a town in northern part of Hradec Králové Region, in the roots of the Krkonoše Mountains.
The Vrchlabí Renaissance castle was built between 1546-1548 by Kryštof from
Gendorf. It was built in Saxon-Silesian style as a water stronghold. In 1820 it
was reconstructed into two-storied castle with domes at the top of eight-edged
towers. The interior includes a great hall with a vault and lunettes, a
remarkable ceramic stove from 1545 and stucco decoration. It is situated in the
castle park and is surrounded by rare woods. Nowadays, the castle is a residence
of the town council. - in: http://www.infocesko.cz/content/clanek.aspx?clanekid=7691&lid=2
