| Description | The collection comprises contributions delivered at the colloquium “The Castle as a Technical Issue. Technologies and Forms in the Construction of Mediaeval Fortified Settlements”, held at the end of 2007 at the Moravian Museum, Brno, with archaeologists, architects, anthropologists and heritage experts participating. As well as covering the building and historical development of castles, the contributions also concentrate on details of everyday life in mediaeval castles, people’s diets and armour. Much of the attention is dedicated to Skály (Štarkov) Castle, near u Jimramov, placed in a broader context. Further contributions involve castles at Cimburk, near Městečko Trnávka and Újezd u Kunštátu, the Silesian-Ostrava Castle and the Nosislav stronghold. |
