Original language description

Kost Castle (Bohemia) is one of the best-preserved Gothic castles in Central Europe. It first appeared in written sources in the 1340s as the seat of Beneš of Kost. On the basis of structural analyses regarding the form of a large residential tower, the first construction phase was believed to be completed in the late 1380s under Petr of Vartenberk. During the archaeological research in 2019–2020, three masonry structures predating the previously known first phase were newly identified – a bergfried, a cylindrical tower and a tower gate. The castle was probably inhabitable in this earliest phase, with a castle chapel documented in written sources and the use of a tile stove confirmed by archaeological finds. All these structures built by Beneš of Kost in the first half of the 14th century completely disappeared during a radical reconstruction initiated by Petr of Vartenberk finished in the late 1380s, when the castle fundamentally changed its appearance to the state that, in its basic features, has survived to the present. © 2024 Masaryk University.
