Hořovice Castle is a castle in the town of Hořovice in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic.

It was built in two parts. The so-called "Old Castle" was built in the Gothic style, in the 14th century, and the "New Castle" was radically rebuilt and extended in the first half of the 19th century under its owner Frederick William's orders and according to the plans of the Kassel architect Gottlob Engelhardt. The castle only got its final shape after further structural changes due to more refurbishings at the beginning of the 20th century, with furniture of the rooms and the interior being carried out in late Classicist style.

The castle served as the primary residence of the Princes of Hanau, since 1867 until the end of the World War II.
