RE: Prague/Czech Republic - Sunday photo challenge - share your personal pictures from your visit to the Czech Republic!
Donjon, Rokštejn Castle, Cezech-Moravian Highlands, Moravia (Czech Republic)
Donjon, (tower i left) it means Last Defense Tower. It was the last place the defenders of the castle retreated when all the defensive zones were broken.
All the property was left in the palace. A steady supply of water, food, arrows and stones was kept on the tower.
But this donjon did not resist. It was dug and burned from the side.
