Oheb, Castle ruin in Proseč, Czech Republic.

The stone remains of Oheb Castle stand on a rocky outcrop above the Seč reservoir, offering views across the surrounding landscape.

The castle, constructed during the late 14th century, obtained its name from the elbow-shaped bend in the Chrudimka river that flowed beneath its walls.

The castle ruins serve as a research site for medieval architecture and defense systems, contributing to understanding Czech fortification methods.

Visitors can access the castle ruins by following a one-kilometer path from the main parking area near the Seč reservoir dam.

The construction of Seč dam between 1925 and 1934 transformed the castle's surroundings, creating an island where the river bend previously existed.
