The settlement of this site dates to Paleolithic age. The fort itself was built in Hallstatt time by pre-celtic people. It covers about 8 hectares of the little plateau point and the most significant are two massive dikes more the 3m in height. Although the close presence of the Kounov stone alignments brings many questions, no relations was discovered by now.
