Džbánov: Hotels and Accommodations
Džbánov was founded around the middle of the 13th century; the first “official” references date from 1292. The central area consists mainly of public green spaces around a body of water.
History
The place name evolved from Čban through Čbánov to the present-day name Džbánov. In the 14th century, Džbánov and its surroundings belonged to Zbraslav Monastery. The old Bohemian noble family Džbánovští ze Džbánova originated in Džbánov. Its coat of arms featured a red shield with two crossed swords, their handles pointing upward; the crest consisted of three silver ostrich feathers.
Nature
Džbánov is home to numerous mature specimen trees that form part of the streetscape. Gardens and designated green spaces on the outskirts of Džbánov form the transition between the built-up settlement and the open landscape.
