Sebečice: Hotels and Accommodations

Sebečice and Biskoupky combine early written records, the history of a former fortress, a natural monument with fossils, and several marked trails.

History and Local Character

The first written mention of Sebečice dates from 1359. Biskoupky, a part of the municipality of Sebečice, is first mentioned in written records in 1445. The fortress of Biskoupky was already uninhabited when it was sold in 1573; remains of the fortress can be found at Farmyard No. 1.

Local buildings include the Chapel of Saint Margaret, which stands beside a pond on the village square in Sebečice. The former school building in Sebečice was converted into a multifunctional building with a grocery store and a restaurant.

Nature and Views

The Biskoupky Natural Monument is located in the cadastral area of Biskoupky in the municipality of Sebečice. It is a classic Middle Cambrian fossil site with outcrops of sediments from the Skryje-Týřovice Cambrian containing fossils.

The Biskoupky u Sebečic lookout tower is a metal tower built in 2019, with an observation platform for tourists. It stands on the western edge of the Biskoupky settlement below Bašovka Hill. The lookout tower is freely accessible year-round; visitors climb it at their own risk.

Hiking and Recurring Routes

A circular hike starting in Sebečice initially follows the blue-marked route to Chotětín, then the red-marked route to the U Zámečku junction. It then follows the green-marked route past the vanished settlement of Rovný to the Pod Babskou skálou junction, and finally returns to Sebečice along the blue-marked route past the abandoned castle site on Babská skála Hill.

In the vicinity of Sebečice, the ascent to the Babská skála viewpoint follows an almost seven-kilometre section. In Sebečice, this includes a short descent and begins as early as the weekend-house area below Drahoňův Újezd.

The New Year's hike from Biskoupky via Sebečice to a viewpoint and back takes place every year. On January 1, 2023, the New Year's hike led from Biskoupky via Sebečice to Bašovka and ended with light refreshments.
