The "Pearl of Moravia" was built by the last male member of an ancient family, Jan Sembera of Boskovice. The rice of the manor house and its decorations are dated from approximately 1575 to 1584.
Apart from the architecture, the Bucovice Chateau displays pride in rooms with flamboyant artistic decorations such as stucco and painted ornaments, symbols, figures, and scenes from ancient history and from classical mythology.

The vaulted ceiling in the chapel which was finished in 1637 bears scenes from the lives of the Virgin Mary and of Jesus Christ.
A sculptural group, with a figure of Bacchus on the top, attracts attention in the courtyard, it originally formed the center of a fountain built in 1635.
