It is not certain whether it was the former order castle or the other fortress west of the village, where the castle was later built. It is possible that there were even three permanent houses in Herálec, with the storehouse hill as a third location. After the death of Oldřich von Říčan, the festival fell to King Wenceslaus II , who left it to the merchant Reinher von Florenz.
