Culture and History

Tovačovské náměstí was laid out in 1475 and is one of the oldest squares in the Czech lands. The memorials and crosses of Památky 1866 commemorate the events of the Austro-Prussian War and the Battle of Tovačov on 15 July 1866.

The Museum of the Jewish Community presents the history of Jews worldwide, in the Czech lands, and in Tovačov in the ceremonial hall of the Jewish cemetery. The ceremonial chapel of the Jewish cemetery in Tovačov was built in 1889 in the Neo-Renaissance style, based on a design by the architect M. Fleischer. “Tovačovské fěrtóšek” is a gathering of children’s ensembles from the Haná region.

Water Landscape

At Hradecký rybník, accessible paths run along the embankments and offer views of the water surface and extensive reed beds. Tovačovská jezera consists of four independent bodies of water: Annínské jezero, Troubecké jezero, Skašovské jezero, and Lake Donbas. The area provides a habitat for several specially protected animal species, around 70 bird species, and more than 30 fish species.

Cycling and Swimming

The Cyklostezka Bečva runs around Tovačovská jezera. The cycling route from Olomouc to Tovačov is part of the interregional Moravská stezka No. 4. Swimming is permitted only at Annín Pond, which locals call the “Tovačov Riviera.”
