Rožnov, Castle ruins on Hradisko hill in Rožnov pod Radhoštěm, Czech Republic.
The stone castle remains stand high above the Bečva River valley, offering views of the surrounding Beskydy mountains and Moravian Wallachia region.
The castle, constructed in 1310, served as a defense fortress until 1538 when authorities ordered its demolition following occupation by groups of bandits.
The ruins represent a significant cultural monument, preserving medieval architectural elements that reflect the military engineering practices of 14th-century Moravia.
Visitors can reach the castle ruins through marked hiking trails starting from the Wallachian Open Air Museum, with information panels explaining the site's history.
The castle's strategic position allowed its defenders to control the trade route between Moravia and Hungary, connecting the Bečva River valley with Slovak territories.
