Příběnice
Facts and practical information
Příběnice is a castle ruin 3.5 kilometres northwest of Malšice and eight kilometres southwest of Tábor in the Tábor district. The castle stood on a prominent promontory surrounded by the meander of the Lužnice River at an altitude of 410 metres. The settlement complex also included a latrine and the smaller Příběničky Castle on the opposite bank of the river. Together they are protected as a cultural monument.
Together with Stará Dubá Castle, Příběnice was the only castle that could compete in the thirteenth century with the smaller royal castles with perimeter buildings in terms of size and quality, thus demonstrating the power and capabilities of its owners.
