Křinec: Hotels and Accommodations

In Křinec, historical and natural themes come together with Křinec Baroque Chateau and the Chotuc Nature Monument.

Culture and History

Křinec Chateau is a Baroque building and has been a cultural monument of the Czech Republic since 1965. It is partially open to the public during regular guided tours and events.

Kuncberk was a medieval fortress that was converted into a castle after 1470 by Jan Křinecký of Ronov. The wooded hill bears traces of medieval fortifications, including massive circular ramparts and a large, deep moat. Today, a massive earthen rampart, a moat, and the remains of cellar rooms are visible at Kuncberk on the central area. The fortification is considered an outstanding example of the development of passive defense against the effects of artillery in the 15th century.

Nature at Chotuc

The Chotuc Nature Monument rises above Křinec. Chotuc is considered a concentration area for the occurrence of the purple orchid (Orchis purpurea) in the Central Bohemian Region. Ecologically valuable xerothermic plant communities also occur on Chotuc.
