Description Intense archaeological and heritage surveillance started on the site of the Vildenberk castle ruin, near Pozořice (Brno-Venkov district, South Moravia) in 2011. Interdisciplinary research into the castle and its hinterland by a research team of students from Masaryk University, Brno was launched in parallel. The research involved a new assessment of written sources concerning the history of the castle and the whole demesne. In adition, a new plan of the location was drawn up with the use of modern geodetic and geoinformation applications, and the acquired data was compared to the existing plans. Preliminary research into the building materials on the site was done as well. Interesting finds include the relic of a rampart in the extramural settlement below the castle, the research of which is still in progress.
