Beroun District, Administrative district in Central Bohemian Region, Czech Republic

The district spans 703 square kilometers of terrain featuring the Křivoklát Highlands, Hořovice Uplands, and Brdy Highlands between Prague and Plzeň.

The district gained importance during medieval times when its capital Beroun developed as a strategic point on trade routes between Prague and Western Europe.

National cultural monuments within the district include Karlštejn Castle, ruins of Žebrák and Točník castles, and the Benedictine monastery in Svatý Jan pod Skalou.

The D5 motorway connects the district's 85 municipalities to Prague and Germany, while extensive railway networks facilitate transportation throughout the region.

The district contains extensive limestone formations, with the lowest point at 211 meters in Zadní Třebaň and the highest at 826 meters on Jordán hill.
