AB The article deals with the findings of several fragments of compound pier(s) that prove this type of support in Bohemian Early Gothic architecture that are quite rare to find. The buttresses are characterised by a cylindrical core that connects subtle cylindrical shanks of different diameters. They appear to show the still living response of the classical Gothic style and also document the high standard of the vanished structure. It cannot be ruled out that the elements were set in a mendicant monastery in Hradec Králové perhaps in the second half of the 13th century.
