Hřiměždice, Cultural monument and château in Příbram District, Czech Republic.
Hřiměždice is a village with a château situated near Slapy Reservoir, roughly 38 kilometers south of Prague. The settlement spreads across a modest area and serves as a connection point between neighboring communities.
The settlement first appeared in records around 1270 when a monastery held it, and later a king incorporated it into a larger estate. These early connections shaped how the place developed under powerful institutions for centuries.
The Church of Saint Anne reflects local religious life and how the community built its spiritual center over time. Visitors can see how this structure fits into the everyday life and rhythm of the village today.
The village is accessible via the main road I/18 and connects well with surrounding areas. Visitors will find a quiet place with limited facilities, so it helps to plan ahead for what you might need.
A flooded quarry on the grounds serves as the annual venue for an extreme water sports competition called High Jump. This unexpected location draws athletes seeking an unusual challenge.
