Hořovice, Administrative municipality in Beroun District, Czech Republic
The municipality extends across rolling terrain at 375 meters above sea level, with residential areas spreading from the central district into surrounding neighborhoods.
Iron ore processing defined the development of Hořovice since the 14th century, leading to specialized foundries for cast iron production in the 18th century.
The New Castle, constructed between 1680 and 1709, represents architectural evolution and contains a French-English park open to visitors throughout the year.
The railway line connecting Prague to Klatovy provides regular transport services, making the town accessible from major cities in the region.
Local Jewish communities in medieval times influenced the spread of the surname Horovitz, connecting the town to notable rabbinical scholars.
