Skalitz-Sasau District
This page is a The Skalitz-Sasau District is the primary setting of Kingdom Come: Deliverance. It is located in Central Bohemia, present-day Czechia. The areas shown are real locations, some of which still exist in modern times, although much has been left to artistic interpretation due to the areas being reconstructed over time, deteriorating due to age, or simply razed to the ground and never rebuilt.

- Rattay (Rattay on Sasau)
Sir Hanush's (Hanuš) city is today really similar to the game version, we can see the old Peshek's mill (obviously today isn't a mill) and the Bathhouse. The upper castle was renovated many times and today remains the barock version. Pirkstein castle is instead still medieval but ruined. The story of the Skalitz refugees flees with Sir Radzig (Ráček) is actually true.
Sasau
- Sasau & the Sasau Monastery
This city, today called Sázava, has still his monastery, but it remains incomplete, like in the game, as the Emperor Francis II of the Holy Roman Empire in 1800 stopped the construction.
Skalitz
- Silver Skalitz (Skalitz)
Today this location is located approximately like in game (a bit more far than like it's in game), and his name is Střibrna Skalice. The village of Rovna is included in Skalitz, because his church, St. James was annexed, as Skalitz was without church. The ruins of the castle destroyed by Sigismund of Luxembourg doesn't exist anymore, just some rocks.
Talmberg
The current name of the castle is Talmberk, and from 1390 until 1415 is legally in the possession of Sir Divish of Talmberg (Divíš z Talmberku). Today, Talmberk castle is in ruins, and as it isn't possible to know the exact structure of the original castle, the game version is an interpretation.
Codex entry
The extent of the KCD game world corresponds roughly to an area in south-eastern Bohemia around Sasau River, in which many historical heritage sites are located. The most notable include Sasau Monastery and the castles in Bohemian Sternberg, Rataie (Rattay) and Skalice (Skalitz - of which only a few stones can be found today).
