Dolany: Hotels and accommodations

The branch of the Lords of Rýzmberk, who held Dolany until the 15th century, built a water castle in the village. The Church of St. Peter and Paul in Dolany was built in 1384 during the Gothic period.

Culture and history

The Jesuit college in Klatovy expanded the water castle in Dolany and adapted it for its purposes. Under the Měsíčkové of Výškov, the manor house in Dolany was rebuilt in the Renaissance style. The remaining structure of the Church of St. Peter and Paul after the reconstruction was completed in the Baroque style. The preserved older tower of the church is 32 metres high.
