In the Šumava foothills, large ruins of two castles have survived, built close together by the powerful Rožmberk (Rosenberg) family in the third quarter of the 14th century as the administrative centres of the newly organised estates. Because the builders were the same, it is not surprising that the castles show similarities, particularly the core with the monumental three-part palace in the central part of the castle. Despite their rather exceptional information value and the rare possibility of comparison, the building historians have paid little attention to the two castles. This is manifested especially in the palaces as they rank among the largest...

Group of Paintings of the Chudenice Altarpiece The Case of a Late Gothic Painting Workshop in the Nobility’s Service

The study deals with a few Late Gothic panel paintings which, based on a formal analysis from the beginning of the 20th century, were linked by the common starting point – a painting workshop. The anonymous painter received an alternative name, Master of the Chudenice Altarpiece. This example shows artificially constructed painting workshops in Bohemia, and the historical workshop practice as it reflects upon the relevancy of this traditional art historical concept. However, the revised formal analysis backed up by the latest survey of underdrawings substantiated that the common authorship of these paintings can still be considered relevant....

Baroque Pools in Castle Gardens in Dobříš and Smilkov

Relics of Baroque pools with complex ground plan layouts have recently been discovered in the ornamental gardens of the castles in Dobříš and Smilkov (both in Central Bohemia). In Dobříš, depictions of erstwhile pools are found in the print of the garden around 1770. The pool in Smilkov, which was backfilled in the second half of the 20th century, is partly visible in historical photographs. Archaeological surveys in both localities contributed to the overall reconstruction of the ground plans of the pools. Interestingly, the historical depiction of the Dobříš garden reveals that the shapes of the pools are distorted.

Half‑timbered two‑storeyed granaries with a small balcony are typical features of vernacular architecture in the North Pilsen Region. Their greatest number has survived in the village of Jarov (Pilsen‑North District) where their dendrochronological analysis has recently been completed, and this study presents its results. The oldest granary is dated by beams made of trunks chopped down in the winter of 1718/1719.

The paper builds on the results of the recent research about the Late Renaissance granary of the Harazim Homestead in South Bohemia. It focuses on a fragmentarily preserved building that was incorporated into this granary at the time of its construction around 1600. Based on the newly acquired dendrodates, it is likely that structural and dating relationships between these two structures can be established.
