Remains of Ronov Castle

            The least preserved one of three castles called Ronov was founded around 1360, and its history is not well documented - it´s last mentioned in 1369 just before the finishing. It was possibly one of the victim of markgrave wars around the year 1400, which saw many castles damaged and not renewed. The castle was nothing special in department of strategic location or fortifications, it was built lightly in a place not best suited for use of natural defences. There was a pentagonal wall system with a large two tower palace, the core of the castle was closed and it collapsed inside when destroyed, burrying the building under rubble. The actual hill is much higher than it originally was, and although it doesn´t seem so, it hides walls and parts several stories high. The composition is still very well visible. The ruin still waits for archeologists to uncover the remains and possible secrets.
