Damníkov: Hotels and Accommodation
Damníkov lies at the foot of the forested Hřebečovský Ridge in the Třebovský mezihoří, below the Třebovský Pass. The village combines a diverse sacred landscape, surrounding forests, and specific opportunities for horseback riding and cycling excursions.
Landscape
The Lukovský Stream flows through Damníkov and joins the Moravská Sázava. The surrounding forests provide recreation for locals and visitors; they are also suitable for mushroom and blueberry picking.
Culture and History
The Church of Saint John the Baptist is a Neo-Gothic building constructed in 1898. It preserves a late Gothic portal dating from around 1500, as well as ornate tombstones from the 16th century. Next to the church stands a Baroque rectory dating from 1754.
The village’s furnishings and history also include several depictions of saints. Damníkov is home to a statue of Saint John of Nepomuk dating from 1713. A Baroque statue of Saint Procopius from 1710 commemorates the former church.
The abandoned Rychtářský mlýn lies near the church. Only the massive dam of a reservoir has survived. The former mill originally belonged to the estate of the hereditary reeve; until the 20th century, it was owned by the Zorn family, who usually leased it out.
Activities
The Gloserovi riding club in Damníkov offers riding groups as well as riding and show-jumping training for children from the age of six. In addition, marked local cycling routes intersect in the village.
