Semčice: Hotels and Accommodations

History

In 1912, a grain breeding station with storage and cleaning facilities for beet seed began operating on the Thurn Taxis estate in Semčice. The varieties bred in Semčice became leading varieties in the domestic range for a long period of time. The breeding station reduced the dependence of the Czechoslovak sugar industry on imported beet seed.

The Chlum Nature Park is located in the wider region around Semčice and is also protected as a site of European importance.
