is a characteristic dominant of the eastern Bohemian Polabí region, which was formed by the Tertiary activity of the Earth. On the basis of archaeological excavations, it can be said today that a large castle complex stood on Kunětice Hill no later than in the second half of the 14th century. It was a castle with a palace and a prismatic, originally residential tower in the eastern part of the complex, and a defensive cylindrical tower in the western part of the complex (the foundations of which have been partially preserved to this day).
The first written mention of it dates back to June 1420, when the disgruntled people from the surrounding area gathered on Kunětická hora, to whom the priest Ambrož preached: "(...) they called the faithful to Kunětice hora above Pardubice, high and strong, where the common people and the charcoal burners were gathered in great numbers, so that they could hinder the evil and liberate the truth under both ways."
