Zbořený Kostelec Castle, Gothic castle ruins in Týnec nad Sázavou, Czech Republic.

The castle remains stand on a rocky promontory overlooking the Sázava River, featuring remnants of gates, stone structures, and a round watchtower.

Built in the 13th century, the castle functioned until its capture by Jiří z Poděbrad's army, which initiated its transformation into ruins.

The name Zbořený Kostelec translates to demolished Kostelec, reflecting the local population's recognition of the castle's deteriorated condition over centuries.

Visitors can reach the castle ruins by following a green tourist trail for 300 meters from the parking area behind the bus stop on road 107.

Three entrance gates were strategically positioned throughout the castle complex, enabling comprehensive surveillance of the surrounding territory during medieval times.

Location: Týnec nad Sázavou
