Fortress Josefov was built in the 1700s in order to defend Austria from Prussia. Located outside Prague in Jaroměř, the circular fortress was intended to function as its own town. Despite its tumultuous history during the Napoleonic and two World Wars, the Military History Association has preserved the fortress. The site also plays host to a variety of events and music festivals. 30 miles worth of underground passages, a military cemetery, a museum, and various events makes this ancient site a must-see. If you're brave enough, take the 45-minute tour of the darkened, underground passages with candles as the only source of light.
