Domažlice, Historic market town in Plzeň Region, Czech Republic

The town center contains medieval fortifications, narrow streets, and a central square dominated by a 56-meter-tall tower from the Church of the Nativity.

The royal settlement, established in 1265 by King Ottokar II, served as a fortified border post between Bohemia and Bavaria for several centuries.

The Museum of Chodsko Region in the medieval castle presents exhibits about local traditions, folk costumes, and the history of border guards.

The town functions as an administrative center for 76 municipalities in the district and maintains regular transport connections with Plzeň and Prague.

The Chodsko region inhabitants maintain their distinct dialect, traditional bagpipe music, and specific type of decorated ceramics dating from medieval times.
