   From the original Medieval castle only the cylindrical tower has been preserved until today. However, the regular character of the manor edifices bears witness to the fact that they may belong to the newly erected buildings originating from the end of the 16th century. A considerable early Baroque modification, which gave the construction its present appearance, occurred after 1660 under the direction of Jan R. Breda and his successor Kryštof. the most famous occupier of Lemberk, in the 13th century, was Zdislava, the wife of the castle founder, becoming famous within her short life through both her merciful deeds and talent to miraculously heal. In 1995 she was canonized by Pope Jan Pavel II.
   Of the interiors it is the late Renaissance Hall of Fables that stands out, named after the 77 motif from the Esop's Fables, which are painted on the panel ceiling. A kitchen from the 17th century has been preserved in a functional state.
