HISTORY

The origins of the grange date from the early 18th century when Nicholas count Taafe had it built. The main building (nowadays restaurant and hotel) as well as the stalls were built in 1767. „L“ shaped complex of barns originates from 1832. All houses were rebuilt over the years (in 1873, 1930 and in the fifties of the 20th Century). Northeastern stall gable is decorated with the heraldry of the counts Taafe – the manor possesors in the sixties of the 18th century. Further on the grange was in the possesion of the Larisch-Moenich family. After the 2nd World War it was run by the state farm and currently it again becomes a private property.

The present owner intends to rebuilt the whole site for further use.

In January 2002 the Olšiny Grange was declared a national cultural monument by the Czech Ministry of Culture.
