Okoř is a municipality and village in Prague-West District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 100 inhabitants.
The name is derived from the personal name Okora.[2]
Okoř is located about 11km (07miles) northwest of Prague. It lies in an agricultural landscape of the Prague Plateau. The stream Zákolanský potok flows through the municipality.
The first written mention of Okoř is in a deed of King Ottokar I from 1227.[3]
There are no railways or major roads passing through the municipality.
The main landmark of Okoř is the ruin of the large medieval Okoř Castle. It was gradually built from the 13th to the 15th century. During the Thirty Years' War, the castle became a ruin. The last construction modifications took place in the 18th century.[4] Today the castle is a popular tourist destination. In the summer season, various cultural events are held here.[5]
