V chobotech

V chobotek is a medieval hillfort located in Čejetičky with earthen ramparts forming defensive structures across the elevated site. The fortification features a perimeter defined by preserved embankments and terraced areas that protected the settlement in earlier times.

The fortification originated during the early medieval period as a defensive settlement for local populations in the region. Its strategic location helped control important pathways and provided protection during a time of frequent territorial conflicts.

The site holds meaning as a window into how medieval Czech communities organized themselves and defended their territory. Walking through the earthen ramparts, you can sense the practical purpose these structures served for the people who built them.

The site is accessible year-round and can be visited independently without special preparation beyond standard outdoor walking gear. The terrain is uneven in places, so sturdy footwear helps you navigate the earthen ramparts and surrounding ground safely.

Archaeological digs at this location uncovered everyday objects and tools that reveal how residents lived and worked during medieval times. These discoveries provide a detailed picture of domestic life that goes beyond what the earthworks alone can show.
