Pavlovice u Kojetína: St. Andrew’s Church, Culture and Hilly Landscape

Pavlovice u Kojetína lies in a hilly landscape on the southeastern edge of the Tištínská pahorkatina uplands. The Baroque St. Andrew’s Church, built in 1727, is the most significant immovable cultural monument in Pavlovice u Kojetína. It stands on a hill and can be reached by stairs.

The cultural monuments are located at different points in the village and its immediate surroundings: at St. Andrew’s Church, on the road to Mořice, at the crossroads towards Unčice and at the bell tower. This makes it possible to distinguish the historical points of interest as separate sightseeing stops.

When choosing a hotel in Pavlovice u Kojetína, travel dates, room category and cancellation conditions can be considered separately. They define the time frame, type of room and conditions for changes or cancellation. This keeps the essential details of an offer clear without mixing up different aspects of the stay.
