Culture and History

The first written mention of Bratrušov dates from 1371.

The Church of All Saints (Kostel Všech svatých) in Bratrušov is a late Renaissance church dating from 1603. The single-nave building has a polygonal termination and a hexagonal tower above the roof ridge; in 1833, the church received an Empire-style vestibule.

The Chapel of St. Roch (sv. Rocha) is a free-standing, masonry single-nave building on a hill, with a rectangular nave and a semicircular apse. Its construction was most likely connected with the cholera epidemic in Bratrušov in 1832, in which 43 people died.

The Bratrušovská boží muka have been listed as a protected monument since 1958. This small sacred monument is classified as Empire style; its construction is dated to 1833.
