History
The first written mention of Boseň is from 1057, when the village was donated to the newly established Litoměřice Chapter.[2] History of the village is connected with the Valečov Castle, which was first mentioned in a document from 1316–1318. The castle was burned down in 1434, but it was reconstructed by Vaněk of Valečov. The castle was then damaged in the Thirty Years' War and in 1652, it was described as a ruin. For two centuries until 1892, the rock spaces of the ruins became the home of the poor.[3][4]
