In 1932 the Thun family sold Děčín Castle to the Czechoslovak state, which converted it into barracks. In October 1968 the castle was handed over to Soviet troops and housed a reconnaissance battalion and a medical battalion. Most of the premises were handed over to the civil authorities in mid-December 1990, and the hospital in the castle was vacated in early February 1991; in 1991 the castle became the property of the city.
В 1932 году род Тунов продал Дечинский замок чехословацкому государству, которое устроило в нём казармы. В октябре 1968 года замок передан советским войскам: здесь размещались разведывательный и медицинский батальоны. Большая часть объектов передана гражданским властям в середине декабря 1990 года, госпиталь в замке освобождён в начале февраля 1991 года; в 1991 году замок перешёл в собственность города.
