Dobruška, Administrative center in Rychnov nad Kněžnou District, Czech Republic

The municipality encompasses seven settlements across its territory, including Běstviny, Domašín, Chábory, Křovice, Mělčany, Pulice, and Spáleniště at 287 meters elevation.

Founded as Lešno around 1320 at the intersection of trade routes, Dobruška underwent major changes when the Trčka family arrived in 1495, reconstructing buildings in Renaissance style.

The F. L. Věka Square features a Renaissance town hall with a tower museum displaying early works of artist František Kupka and regional historical artifacts.

The municipality serves as a regional administrative hub with expanded powers, offering governmental services, educational facilities, and infrastructure for 6,600 residents.

The former synagogue, constructed in the 18th century, received a neo-Gothic architectural transformation following restoration work after fire damage.
