The study deals with the stay of Jan Hus at Castle Krakovec from where he was said to have departed for the council of Constance in October 1414. The historicity of this stay was recently doubted by Jan Krško, which lacked support in the sources. However, an analysis of the existing material, particularly the manuscripts of the Old Czech Annals, has shown the record of Hus´s stay at Krakovec comes from contemporary witnesses, which further increases their value. The author also proves Krško´s proposed points of departure for Hus to be unlikely in the case of Prague and thorougly ruled out in the case of Bechyně.
