About Hradiště v Kouřimi

Embark on a walk around the Kouřimsko microregion, inviting you to the Institute of Archeology of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Prague, for over 70 years.

In Kouřimsko, there existed in the early Middle Ages, specifically in the 8th - 12th centuries, three fortified areas, which represented the center of power, military, trade and crafts at a time when the Czech state was gradually born. The most important of these fortified settlements in the position of Stará Kouřim was in its time even the largest fortress in Bohemia.

A walk through the Kouřim settlements requires good tires and ideally dry weather. Visiting individual buildings can take several tens of minutes, but if you decide to discover the royal town of Kouřim, its temple, local museum and open-air museum, you can spend a pleasant day here. You can take a walk on the fortifications by bike or with a pram.
