About
Remains of a fortified medieval manor house in the hamlet of Patkôš near Hontianske Tesáre, on the southwestern edge of the Krupina Plateau.
On the southwestern edge of the Krupina Plateau, near the village of Hontianske Tesáre, the hamlet of Patkôš conceals the remains of a fortified manor house that once served as a noble residence with defensive features. Only a fragment of the original structure survives today, yet even in this state it offers a valuable testimony to medieval noble settlement in this part of the historic Hont region.
The site is nestled within the tranquil rural landscape typical of the southern slopes of the Krupina Plateau. Although the ruin is modest in scale and lacks a dramatic skyline, it makes for a worthwhile stop for history enthusiasts and those who enjoy exploring lesser-known heritage sites off the beaten track.
