Jezdec are the remains of a rock castle on the granite promontory of Žulový vrch above Černá Nisa above the Kateřinské údolí valley on the northern edge of the Liberec district of Ruprechtice. The castle is documented in writing and archaeology during the 14th to 15th centuries, when it probably served to guard the provincial road from Liberec to Frýdlant. The foundation of the castle was three rock ribs on which stood a wooden building, whose presence today is evidenced only by cuts and a rectangular depression in the rock. The entire promontory was separated from the rest of the ridge on the south side by a rampart and a ditch about two meters wide. From this side there is also the only access to the castle, there is a yellow marked tourist path, the place now serves as a lookout.
