Měrovice nad Hanou: Parish Church, Crosses and Regional Culture
Měrovice nad Hanou combines a parish church with several crosses, local festivals and surrounding landscape features.
Parish Church of St. Bartholomew: Construction Date and Heritage Protection
The parish church of St. Bartholomew in Měrovice nad Hanou was built before 1597. It is registered as a state-protected immovable monument. The church acquired its present appearance after restoration in 1801. Thus, alongside the building's considerable age, a clearly documented later alteration of the church is also central.
Small Cultural Monuments by the Road, Church and Haná
The smaller cultural monuments include the wayside shrine Boží muka near the road to Kojetín. It dates from 1939 and was restored in the 1990s. Its connection to the road to Kojetín distinguishes it spatially from the crosses at the church and on the left bank of the Haná.
The stone cross by the church in Měrovice nad Hanou dates from 1746. Another stone cross stands on the left bank of the Haná; it was restored and relocated in 2014. The stone crosses therefore differ both in their location by the church and in their connection to the riverbank.
The wooden wayside cross Červený kříž stands in the fields northwest of Měrovice nad Hanou, above the railway line to Brno. Unlike the stone crosses, it is spatially characterized by its location in the fields, its direction and the railway line.
Hody and Game Feasts
TJ Haná Měrovice takes part in organizing the Hody celebrations in Měrovice nad Hanou every year. Hody and game feasts thus represent different types of local event connections.
Game feasts organized by MS Měrovice also take place in Měrovice nad Hanou. In addition to the annual participation of TJ Haná Měrovice, MS Měrovice is therefore also connected with an event as an organizing local community.
