The Church of Saint Gotthard is a valuable Gothic building with a late Romanesque core and later modifications. It has a Baroque prismatic tower with a unique, over 4 metre high weather vane.
The Budišov Castle is the second landmark of the market town. The original water fortress from the 13th century was rebuilt into the Renaissance castle in 1573 by Václav Berka of Dubá. After 1715, the castle was rebuilt into the representative Baroque residence by the Paar family. The castle is surrounded with a large landscape park. Since 1974, the castle has been managed by the Moravské zemské muzeum. It is open to the public.
