Boskovice Castle, Castle ruin in Boskovice, Czech Republic

The stone ruins of Boskovice Castle sit on a hilltop at 460 meters above sea level, north of Brno at the boundary of Malá Haná.

The first mention of Boskovice Castle dates to 1222, when the Lords of Boskovice established their residence with a seven-tooth comb on their coat of arms.

The castle complex includes a museum displaying medieval artifacts and documents that detail the regional nobility's influence on local development through centuries.

Visitors can access the castle ruins throughout the year and explore the 26-meter-deep well with its preserved 16th-century treading mechanism.

The castle walls were dismantled in the 18th century, with their stones repurposed for construction projects in the surrounding town of Boskovice.
