Bílovec: Hotels and Accommodations

Bílovec Castle is a prominent landmark visible from far away on the southeastern edge of Bílovec’s inner urban area. Bílovec features historic buildings and exhibitions; trails lead through forested and hilly landscapes.

Culture and History

The exhibition “Skrytý středověk” is located in the Gothic cellar of Bílovec Castle. The history of the town and its economic development is also the focus of the “HISTORIE BÍLOVCE a továrny Massag” exhibition: it covers Bílovec’s historical and administrative development, displays guild objects, and addresses the role of textile production.

The Bílovec Tourist Information Centre is located on the ground floor of a Baroque burgher house next to the castle. The rest of the building houses the Bílovec Museum. For its exhibitions, the museum offers a virtual guide in the form of a historical town clerk, an audio guide, and touchscreens.

The Church of Saint Nicholas is open to visitors; climbs to its church tower can be booked at the information centre in Bílovec from May to September. The Chapel of Saint Barbara is opened to tourists and those interested in its history during the summer season.
