Beroun hotels - About Beroun
Beroun (IPA: [ˈbɛroʊ̯n], German: Beraun) is a town in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It is located 30 km southwest of Prague and has a population of 18,206 (2006).
Despite its small size, it is an administrative center akin to a "county seat". It lies on the D5 motorway that connects Prague with Plzeň and, farther afield, with Bavaria, Germany.
Beroun was originally called na Brodě (by the ford), and received the name of Bern, Berun or Verona in the 13th century, when it obtained the privileges of a city from the emperor Charles IV, who was specially attached to the place, calling it "Verona mea." Under his patronage the town rapidly prospered. In 1421 Jan Žižka stormed the town, which later on was retaken and devastated by the troops of Duke Leopold, bishop of Passau. During the Thirty Years' War it was sacked by the Imperial army, the Saxons and the Swedes in turn; and in the first Silesian war the same fate befell it at the hands of the French and Bavarians.
