Táborská brána, Gate at Vyšehrad fortress, Czech Republic.
The Táborská Gate features a vaulted passage enclosed by stone portals and contains a guardhouse with a portcullis control room on the first floor.
Built around 1640, the gate served as a crucial checkpoint for goods and travelers coming from southern Bohemia through the cities of Tábor and Benešov.
The gate design incorporates late Renaissance architectural elements, reflecting the military engineering practices of 17th century Prague fortification systems.
A pedestrian passage was added through the rampart next to the gate in 1931, creating easier access to the Vyšehrad complex.
Sandstone blocks framing the gate entrance bear marks from soldiers who used the surface to sharpen their weapons during guard duty.
