Choceň, Railway junction town in Ústí nad Orlicí District, Czech Republic
Located at 290 meters elevation in eastern Bohemia, Choceň extends across multiple localities including Březenice, Dvořisko, Hemže, Nová Ves, Plchůvky, and Podrážek.
The town's first written record dates to 1227, and by 1292 it gained market town status under King Wenceslaus II before experiencing significant changes under Charles IV's rule.
The Church of Saint Francis of Assisi, built between 1728 and 1733, represents the architectural heritage of Choceň with its Baroque design elements.
The railway station serves as a central transportation hub connecting Prague to Olomouc, with additional railway lines established in 1875 and 1881.
Choceňská mlékárna, established in 1928, continues its dairy production tradition as one of the primary manufacturers in the region.
