Zbořený Kostelec Castle
This gothique castle had a pretty short existence, built at the end of the 13th Century, it was owned by honrable lords and bandits alike, and the last owner brought it in conflict with the king George of Poděbrady, and the royal army seized and demolished the castle in 1467. Still many remains can be found, the area is well accessible, many path lead around ruined palaces and towers, and the top presents a beautiful look into the landscape. The tower above the river and the earth wall beside it were built later as a base for mobile guns. The northern palace in the core is the best preserved building. In the woods the gate with a base for the falling bridge is still existent.
