Pecka is located about 18 kilometres (11 mi) east of Jičín and 33 km (21 mi) northwest of Hradec Králové. It lies in the Giant Mountains Foothills. The highest point is the hill Červený vrch at 541 m (1,775 ft) above sea level. The Javorka River flows next to the market town.

History

The Pecka Castle was founded in the early 13th century. The first written mention of Pecka is from 1322, when a settlement started to grow below the castle. In 1382, it was promoted to a town. In the late 16th century, the Gothic castle was rebuilt to a Renaissance residence. The most famous owner of the castle was Kryštof Harant until his death in 1621. In 1830, the castle was burned down and turned into a ruin.[2]
