Buzice

Buzice is a ruined fortified residence in the South Bohemian Region with preserved residential wings, a corner tower, and a defensive moat. The remaining walls and ramparts still display the medieval construction methods and layout of the site.

The site was first recorded in 1384 under the ownership of the Buzice family, serving as a noble residence. By the 16th century, the structure gradually lost its importance and fell into partial abandonment.

The structure shows how noble families built their homes to serve both as residences and defensive positions. You can still observe how the rooms and walls were designed to fulfill these dual purposes.

The site is remote and requires personal transportation to reach it. It is wise to check accessibility in advance, as the location sits in a relatively isolated rural setting.

The ruins demonstrate how medieval structures were later repurposed: sections of the fortification were converted into grain storage during the 16th and 17th centuries. This adaptation to new uses is still visible in the walls.
