Roudnice nad Labem (Czech pronunciation: [ˈroudɲɪtsɛ ˈnad labɛm]; German: Raudnitz an der Elbe) is a town in the Ústí nad Labem Region of the Czech Republic. It has a population of about 13,000. It lies on the left bank of the Elbe river, 40 kilometres (25 mi) north of Prague. The town is situated near the site of Říp, the hill connected with the legend of Praotec Čech.
A steel road bridge dating from the early 20th century spans the Elbe in Roudnice nad Labem. Its medieval predecessor was the third oldest stone bridge in Bohemia (after Prague and Písek) and the first bridge to connect both banks of the river. Roudnice nad Labem features a castle of late Romanesque origin, now reconstructed in Baroque architectural style.
