Hrochův Hrádek near Březnice
The article presents the results of the survey and documentation of the remains of the tower house (or stronghold) known as Hrochův Hrádek (Příbram District). Moreover, it highlights the previously fruitless efforts to conserve the structure and the rapid decrease of the masonry and its informational value. The tower was most likely built during the first half of the 14th century in an abandoned early medieval fortified settlement.
