Hrádek (German: Hradek) is a town in Rokycany District in the Plzeň Region of the Czech Republic.
The northern forested part extends into the Brdy Highlands and includes the highest point of Hrádek, the hill Hrádecký vrch at 549 m (1,801 ft) above sea level.
Hrádek together with Rokycany and Kamenný Újezd forms a contiguous built-up area along the Klabava River.
This industrial aspect was further strengthened in the 20th century when both communities (Hrádek and Nová Huť) formed functionally one settlement with their economy centered around the Hrádecké železárny ironworks.

New housing project grew in area between old Hrádek and Nová Huť villages covering the plateau south of Klabava river.
