Tips
Remains of ramparts and archaeological research show that the largest fortified Celtic fortified settlement (oppidum) in our area was located in this area. Its construction began around 175 BC (during the La Tène, ie the Late Iron Age) and the total area reached up to 118 ha. The top plateau was probably inhabited much earlier, already in the late Stone Age.The archaeological site had to be filled in for protection in 2003, so you can imagine the former appearance of this historic site mainly thanks to the stops of the nature trail and the remains of a massive fortification, which changed the terrain and the shape of the hill.Source: mapy.cz
