Dřevíč Hill Fort, Prehistoric hillfort in Kozojedy, Czech Republic
The fortification spans 12 hectares on a triangular plateau with steep slopes descending toward Smolnický stream, featuring earthworks up to 6 meters high.
Archaeological discoveries at the site reveal continuous occupation from Neolithic times through the Únětice, Knovíz, and Hallstatt periods to the Early Middle Ages.
The Chronicle of Kosmas documents the strategic importance of Dřevíč in 1002, mentioning its role as a fortified stronghold in the region.
Two primary entrance points provide access to the fort: the Iron Gate at the southern tip and a 100-meter-long corridor from the northeast.
The foundations of the present Baroque Saint Wenceslas Church incorporate prehistoric walls from earlier defensive structures that once stood at the site.
