Vrchotovy Janovice is a market town in Benešov District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 1,000 inhabitants.
The main attraction of Vrchotovy Janovice is a romantic castle surrounded by a large park. The castle was founded in the Middle Ages in about 1350 as a Gothic water fortress. Then it was rebuilt in a Renaissance and Baroque style until 1760. Prague architect Josef Mocker rebuilt it after 1879 in Neo-Gothic style, and Josef Zasche further rebuilt it around 1910 for the family of Baron Karel Boromejský Jan Ludvík Nádherný of Borutín (1849–1895), his wife Amalie Klein von Wisenberg (1854–1910) and their three children Karel, Jan and Sidonie.
