INSPIRELI is proud to announce the launch of the Zahradky Castle Competition, a new addition to the prestigious 10th INSPIRELI AWARDS. Open to architecture students worldwide, this competition challenges participants to envision the transformation of Zahradky Castle into a dynamic conference center, blending historical preservation with innovative contemporary design.

The project aims to restore the castle and its surrounding buildings, integrating multifunctional spaces that will serve as a conference center, municipality information hub, and a center for leisure activities. The design must also incorporate accommodation facilities, while further restoration efforts will repurpose the orangery and farmhouse into a café or small restaurant, enhancing the site's cultural and social vibrancy.

Charles University, the owner of the castle, is committed to reconstructing the complex based on the winning student project, offering an extraordinary opportunity for young architects to see their vision realized.

The competition is as always free of charge to enter, providing an inclusive platform for students globally to participate. Submissions are due by June 15, 2025, and the total prize pool of 6,000 EUR, along with a special Innovative Solution Prize, will reward the best proposals.
