Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to evaluation the collection of medieval and early moderm period stove tiles, which were founded in castles Brada and Bradlec (district Jičín, northeastern Bohemia). Although it is a relatively small collection (a total of 81 pieces, 8.9 kg), brought their processing range of valuable information. Due to the relatively well-known dating demise of both sites (castle Brada abandonned before 1500, the castle Bradlec before 1600), both collections can help with the date files from neighboring localities. Surprisingly operates frequent occurrence analogies with findings from a nearby castle Kumburk.
