Description

Kotnov (also known as Hradiště) is a castle converted into a brewery in the town of Tábor. It is located on the tip of a promontory in the southwestern part of the town's historic core. The best-preserved part of the castle is the round battery tower. The castle complex, together with the brewery, is protected as a cultural monument, and since 1962, together with the Bechyně Gate, as a national cultural monument.
