Chřenovice, Gothic castle ruin in Chřenovice, Czech Republic.

The stone remains of the medieval castle stand on a strategic hilltop, featuring thick defensive walls and architectural elements from the Gothic period.

Founded in 1280, the castle functioned as a defensive structure and residence for nobility until its gradual decline through subsequent centuries.

The castle remains exemplify medieval Czech military architecture and demonstrate the construction methods used by craftsmen during the Gothic period.

Visitors reach the castle ruins through marked hiking trails from the village of Chřenovice, with informational panels explaining the site's features.

The castle walls contain specific masonry techniques that reveal the evolution of medieval construction practices in Central European fortifications.
