The Kopice Castle has a tragic story attached to it that stretches back centuries. The castle has been in existence for hundreds of years. It became prominent in the mid 14th century when it served as the knight’s seat. At that time, the place was ruled by the von Borsnitz family. By 1450, the magnificent property was bought by the von Bessez family. The palace change hands many times. It was on the order of the von Sierstorpff that the palace was transformed from a Gothic style to a classical style residence. The redesign was done by Heinrich Kaspar. In 1859, the palace changed hands, but this time it was transferred to the von Schafgottsch family, who, upon possessing the property, changed the face of the palace from the classical style to the neo-Gothic style it is today.
