Vlašim, Medieval castle complex in Vlašim, Czech Republic
The Vlašim Castle stands on elevated ground, with its white walls rising above the Blanice River that flows through the municipality.
The settlement received its first written documentation in 1318, with the castle construction dating back to 1303 by nobles who adopted the Vlašim name.
The Church of Saint Giles, built between 1522 and 1523, represents late Gothic architecture and remains central to local religious gatherings.
The municipality connects to major transport routes through the Benešov-Trhový Štěpánov railway line and features a recently reopened aerodrome for public traffic.
Sellier & Bellot, the main industrial facility in Vlašim, produces ammunition and provides employment to more than 1,500 local residents.
