The goal of this study is to capture and describe the specific characteristics of royal dowry towns in the post-Hussite period (1436–1526). As this is an institution that lasted from the High Middle Ages until the mid-19th century, caution is required to avoid transferring characteristics and evaluations from other periods. The approach used respects the state of institutionalization at the time, which in the Middle Ages often took a personal nature or was not continuous. The study asks the following questions: What made Czech royal dowry towns unique? What made them different from other royal towns? What importance did this group of towns have in the historical context of the time? What tied the dowry towns to the queens and the offices of their chamberlains? What effect did the frequent use of these towns as collateral have on them? The sources used most often are municipal rights, correspondence between dowry towns and manorial or regional officials, correspondence between towns, correspondence with the surrounding nobles, legal proceedings, normative sources, and chronicles.
