Náchod, Border town in Hradec Králové Region, Czech Republic
The municipality spreads across the Orlické Foothills, featuring narrow streets that lead to a central square dominated by medieval architecture and local shops.
The settlement, initially named Branka, received its first written documentation in 1254 when Knight Hron of Načeradec established a castle to guard the trade route.
The Jewish quarter, documented since 1455, developed into a center of commerce with its synagogue, cemetery, and educational facilities serving the local community.
The town connects to Poland through the Náchod-Kudowa Słone crossing and maintains regular railway services to major Czech cities through multiple stations.
The Běloves district contains mineral springs that supplied a local spa from 1818 until 1996, with a restored colonnade opening in December 2019.
