Josefov Fortress

Josefov Fortress (Czech: Pevnost Josefov, German: Josefstadt or Josephstadt) is a large historic defence complex of 18th-century military architecture in Jaroměř in the Hradec Králové Region of the Czech Republic. It was built between 1780 and 1787. Together with Terezín fortress, it was built for protection against attacks from Prussia, but its military importance, like other such fortresses built across Europe, was minimal as decisive battles were often fought elsewhere. In 1948 it became part of the town of Jaroměř.

      • Josefov Fortress

        Fort Josefov. A massive baroque fortress finished in 1787 by Austria-Hungary for defence against Prussia. It was never besieged, the Prussian simply did go around in 1866, it mostly served as a military prison for Napoleon´s soldiers, Italian revolutionaries, Poles, Hungarians or Turks. For that it was called the prison of nations. It´s fortress status was recalled in 1888, but the city served as a military base for the next hundred years. Most fortifications have survived and the city is being restored in modern times, maybe it´s most interesting part is the complex underground with endless weapons and ammo stores. Josefov Fortress 2
