hrádek Harasov Castle ruin
Hradek Harasov, also known as Krvomlyn, is a ruin of the castle, which is located on the island over the Harasov pond near the Harasov settlement. It is located on the road from Lhotka near Mělník to Kokořín Mine. The castle was built by members of the House of Hrzán in the 14th or 15th century and served as the seat of the House.
Harasov Castle is remarkable with its carved cellars in the rock, which were used by miller workers from nearby New Mill on the Vrutic River. The cellars were later adapted to the form of a recreational rock house, which they serve today.
Harasov Castle was built at the time of the Hussite wars which had a significant impact on the structure of the houses and their property affairs. At that time there were political changes and conflicts in the Czech Republic that affected the lives of the population.
The original structure of the castle included a core separated from the foothold by a moat and other defensive elements. In the 19th century, the cellars were used by the miller who modified them, which led to the destruction of the original disposition.
Castle Harasov was exposed to members of the House of Hrzans. On the list of German knights in Řepin from 1321 is mentioned Pešek Haras z Újezda with his brothers, but at that time probably the castle was not standing. In Bosyni, Bohuněk Haras and 1377 Hrzek z Újezda are listed in 1356. His son was probably Dobeš z Újezda, the owner of the court in Hlumin, who had Harasov Castle built. He took it into the predicate himself in 1420.
In 1604 Václav Št'astá Pútipešský bought the castle, which connected it to the farm Choleč. Later, the cellars were re-adapted to the form of a recreational rock dwelling that they serve today.
