Beroun, District town in Central Bohemia, Czech Republic.
Beroun stands at the meeting point of Berounka and Litavka rivers, surrounded by three distinct highland regions at 235 meters elevation.
The settlement received its royal town designation in 1303 from Wenceslaus II, establishing its position between Prague and Plzeň as a strategic point.
The town celebrates musical heritage through the Talich's Beroun international festival, which started in 1983 to honor violinist Václav Talich.
The D5 motorway and multiple railway connections provide direct transportation links to Prague, making Beroun accessible for both residents and visitors.
Three protected landscape areas converge near Beroun: Bohemian Karst, Brdy, and Křivoklátsko, creating exceptional natural diversity in the region.
