History of Beroun:
11th–15th centuries
The settlement Na Brodě ("By the Ford"), Beroun's predecessor, was first mentioned in a 1088 deed. The first written mention of Beroun (under its Latin name Verona) is in a deed of King Ottokar II from 1265. Ottokar II designated a strategically important place for establishing a settlement, from which the town of Beroun originated, that formed the shortest and easiest connection between Prague and Plzeň.

In 1295, King Wenceslaus II decided to re-settle and expand the town. At this time, the historic core of Beroun was created, and it has been roughly preserved to this day. A Dominican convent was also founded. In 1303, Wenceslaus II made Beroun a royal town.

During Emperor Charles IV's reign, the town prospered and rapidly developed. In 1421, Hussite forces under the command of Jan Žižka stormed the town and demolished the Dominican convent. Though it was retaken and devastated after the Battle of Lipany, it has remained a mainly Czech-settled town since then. During the reign of King Vladislaus II (1471–1516), Beroun reached its greatest prosperity.

16th–19th centuries
Under the rule of the House of Habsburg from 1526, the town's estates were seized. During the Thirty Years' War, it was sacked by the Imperial Army, Saxon forces, and Swedish forces. In the First Silesian War, the same fate befell it at the hands of French and Bavarian troops.

In the 18th century, Beroun became a garrison town and did not prosper again until the 1860s, when limestone quarries and iron ore mines opened. In addition to several ironworks, Beroun became the site of textile manufacturing, and the population increased.

20th–21st centuries
Beroun was significantly transformed during communist rule. Heavy industry was expanded, and central government policy set quotas for new flats. As Beroun is situated between two rivers in a deep valley without suitable building plots, quotas were met by demolishing historical medieval buildings and erecting prefabricated high-rise buildings. The town's look was changed in the 1980s when the D5 highway was opened, running on the bridge above the city.

Králův Dvůr, together with multiple municipalities, was joined to Beroun in 1980. In 1990, Králův Dvůr and Trubín became separate municipalities.

Since the fall of communism, the town has been revitalized. Medieval buildings have been reconstructed, and town walls have been conserved. Heavy industry left the city, significantly raising the quality of living. In the 21st century, Beroun has become a popular place to live with high population growth and above-average quality of environment and health care.
