Finnish metal band Amorphis performs at Brutal Assault 2026 festival in Jaroměř.

About the venue: Fortress Josefov - Underground Passages

Josefov is a remarkably well-preserved baroque fortress built in the 18th century, now forming part of the town of Jaroměř. Its underground network stretches over 45 km, originally designed for military defence and troop movement. Guided tours take visitors through the casemates and tunnels beneath the fortified streets above.

About: Amorphis

Finnish veterans since 1990, Amorphis have traced a path from death metal through progressive and folk-inflected territory, with lyrics rooted in the Kalevala throughout. Their 15th album Borderland (2025) shows the band still pushing their own limits.
