Sušice: Hotels and accommodations

Sušice combines historic local features with landscape connections and regional links.

Culture and history

In the center of Sušice stands the Chapel of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary, on the site of a former bell tower. It was built in 1935. During Sušické hody, services are regularly held in the chapel: on the Sunday around July 2 and on November 4.

The building of the former General School, constructed in 1896, is still used as a kindergarten today. A publication on the settlement of the Sušice municipal area from prehistoric times through the Middle Ages is available free of charge at the municipal office.

The history of ownership also mentions Sušice in several places: a farm estate in Sušice is named in the founding charter of a monastery in Olomouc. A local fortress and the village of Sušice were held by Jan ze Sušice. Margrave Jošt bought Radslavice and Sušice and subsequently sold them to the Olomouc Chapter.

Nature

The meadows in the Sušice–Pochylec and Kudlov localities have above-average biological value compared with the surrounding intensively farmed landscape. On the southwestern edge of Sušice grows a small-leaved linden designated as a memorial tree, estimated to be around 400 years old.

In the vicinity of Sušice are Přísahanec [Sušice u Přerova] and Haná [Hlinsko], both classified as hills. In the wider regional surroundings of Sušice are Růžový Kopec and Kelčský Javorník, each classified as a mountain.
