Talmberk Castle
Talmberk Castle is a castle ruin in Talmberk in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It was built around 1297 and abandoned by 1533.[1] Talmberk Castle's current state is in ruins, though the lower portion of the original bergfried still remains today. The ruins are a protected cultural monument since 1958.[2]
History
[edit]The land was granted to Hroznata of Úžice due to his service to King Wenceslaus II of Bohemia.[3] In the late 14th century, Talmberk Castle was occupied by Diviš of Talmberk and was besieged in 1390 and held by Havel Medek of Valdek.
