České Lhotice Celtic oppidum, Celtic fortified settlement in Hradiště, Czech Republic
The oppidum spans across 23 hectares on a plateau, protected by steep valley sides dropping toward the river and fortified eastern boundaries.
Constructed in the 2nd century BC, this settlement served as a center for trade and mineral resource control until its abandonment in mid-1st century BC.
Archaeological excavations since 1847 have revealed traces of continuous habitation from Paleolithic times through the Roman period and Middle Ages.
The site features an educational trail that guides visitors through the archaeological remains and provides information about Celtic life in Eastern Bohemia.
This settlement stands as the only documented Celtic oppidum in Eastern Bohemia, positioned along a branch of the ancient Amber Road trading route.
