Odolena Voda: Hotels and Accommodation

The following sections take you from cultural history to landscapes, bodies of water and paths.

Culture and History

The town is home to the Baroque Church of Saint Clement. It was built by the Jesuit order between 1732 and 1735 on the site of an older church and contains expressive paintings by the Jesuit Jan Kuben. In Odolena Voda, the church is registered as an immovable cultural monument.

The Renaissance fortress of Odolena Voda was converted into a Baroque château. The château preserves Renaissance vaults and Baroque furnishings.

Hálkovna is the house where the Czech poet and prose writer Vítězslav Hálek was born on 5 April 1835. In the Dolínek district, his birthplace houses an exhibition featuring documents and visual materials about his life and work. The Marian column on the town square dates from 1706. Around 200 gravestones have been preserved in the Jewish cemetery.

Nature and Landscape

The Vršky pod Špičákem Nature Reserve protects extensive valuable dry grasslands as well as acidophilic vegetation consisting of succulents and ephemerals.
