Ševětín: Hotels and Accommodation

The early Gothic parish church of St. Nicholas is the oldest monument in Ševětín and stands in the northeastern part of the square. The Šimon Lomnický Fountain is also located on the new square.

Culture and History

Ethnographically, Ševětín belongs to the Pšeničné Blata region, which stretches from Soběslav to here. The inhabitants of Ševětín historically wore the Blata folk costume, which was distinguished by rich embroidery and the quality of its materials. For the coronation celebrations of Emperor Ferdinand V, four pairs from Ševětín wearing Blata costumes were selected in 1836 to portray a peasant wedding.

The Blaťácký soubor Ševětín draws on local customs and the traditions passed down by earlier generations. The ensemble consists of a bagpipe band, dance couples, and male and female singers. Its programme includes performances, staged sketches, and songs.
