EN: Castle Stradov is located in the former royal deer park. It was based on a promontory above the right bank of the river Chrudimka. The first mention of the castle is from 1374 (Jaros Lacembok from Stradov). In 1421 Hussite troops overran the Pracov monastery and probably also Stradov. In 1444 the estate belonged to John of Elephant from Seslavce. At this time the castle was abandoned.
