Culture

Only parts of the Augustinian monastery’s enclosing walls rising above ground level have survived; the presbytery, cloister, and other buildings of the monastery complex probably survive as archaeological remains. In the center of Krasíkov, on Road II/368, which leads from Štíty to Moravská Třebová, stands the Baroque Chapel of the Guardian Angels, built in 1725.

In front of the chapel stands a statue of Saint Florian made of Maletín sandstone. Its pedestal records that it was commissioned in 1828 by Johann Habiger of house number 57. The ensemble of the Most Holy Trinity stands on the Sázava between a concrete bridge and a power station near house number 75; its sandstone pedestal bears the year 1803.

There is also a deconsecrated Neoclassical chapel at house number 122 in Krasíkov. The sandstone lintel above its door bears the year 1814.

Landscape

The bed of the Moravská Sázava forms a large S in Krasíkov. When water levels are suitable, the Moravská Sázava is frequently used by canoeists.

An 8.9-kilometer hiking route begins and ends at Krasíkov railway station. It leads to Koruna Panny Marie, across footbridges over the Moravská Sázava, into the area above the Krasíkovský Tunnel, and to the village chapel. The route crosses the Moravská Sázava on footbridges and follows the former railway corridor toward the old Tatenický Tunnel.

Railway

Krasíkov has the final railway station and tunnel on the Czech section of the main railway line. Near Krasíkov, trains traveling toward Olomouc enter a 1,098-meter-long railway tunnel.
