Tisovec: Hotels and accommodations

The 13-kilometre-long educational trail Traces of the Ležáky Tragedy runs through Tisovec. It also passes through Dřeveš, Vrbětice and Kvasín, following the traces of the resistance and the tragic events in Ležáky during the Second World War.

Culture and history

The iron cross in Tisovec was restored and reconsecrated on 19 July 1903. Vrbětice is home to an unusual belfry, a steel structure approximately eight metres high.

The Chapel of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Kvasín was built in 1894. In 1991, it was renovated at the expense of the local residents; its tower was newly constructed and clad in copper sheet metal.
