Tehov is a municipality and village in Prague-East District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 1,200 inhabitants.
The initial name of the settlement was probably TÃÂhov. The name was derived from the personal name TÃÂh, meaning "TÃÂh's (court)".
Tehov is located about southeast of Prague. It lies in the Beneà ¡ov Uplands. The highest point is at above sea level. The stream à ÂÃÂÃÂanský potok originates here and flows to the west.
The first written mention of Tehov is from 1309. There was a castle, founded in the 12th century. In 1547, the castle was already described as abandoned. the villagers gradually dismantled it into building material for their houses. Until 1919, the municipality was named Velký Tehov.
The I/2 road (the section from Prague to Kutná Hora) passes through the northern part of the municipality.
The main landmark of Tehov is the Church of Saint John the Baptist. It is a Baroque church with the core from the second half of the 14th century. The tower was added in 1779.
