Věžka

Druztová, Czechia, Czech Republic (Czechia)

Věžka is the ruin of a medieval castle located near the village of Druztová in the Plzeň Region of the Czech Republic.

Built in the 14th century on a rocky hill above the Berounka River, it served as a fortified residence and controlled the surrounding area during the Middle Ages. The castle is first documented in 1351 and was associated with local noble families, including Racek of Švamberk. It endured a lengthy siege in the early 15th century and was eventually conquered and destroyed in 1478 by forces of the Hungarian king Matthias Corvinus.

After that, it was abandoned and gradually fell into ruin. Today, visitors can see the remains of walls, earthworks, and other fortifications while enjoying views over the Berounka valley. The site is protected as a cultural monument and is accessible by a marked hiking trail, making it a popular destination for history enthusiasts and walkers.
