Bohunice U Tvrzic: Culture and Landscape

Tvrzice is home to buildings from the later creative period of folk architect Jakub Bursa: Usedlost No. 7 from 1860, the former inn No. 9 from 1862, and Usedlost No. 11 from 1862. Usedlost No. 7 is one of the three buildings in the village protected as cultural monuments of the Czech Republic and has an originally yellow-and-blue gable. No. 11 has a winged volute gable with a folk painting. Building No. 9 was formerly an inn and has since been remodeled. The architecture thus presents different gable forms, construction dates, and a changed former use side by side.

The first written mention of Tvrzice dates back to 1315 and documents the founding of “Twrzicze” by Queen Eliška Přemyslovna, the wife of John of Luxembourg. Tvrzice also had a medieval fortress. According to the village’s history, it stood on the site of today’s farmstead, while some sources place it on Hůrka. The historical classification therefore combines a dated founding story with two traditional accounts of the fortress’s location.

The geographic ranges help distinguish between the immediate surroundings and the wider regional area. Tvrzice is a harmonious rural landscape whose character is shaped by its network of paths and by waterways accompanied by greenery. Volovický vrch is located in the vicinity of Tvrzice. The mountains Včelenský vrch, Libín, and Boubín are located in the wider regional area. The ruin “Radomysl Mediumwave Radio Mast” and the ancient site of Chlumany are also located in this wider regional area.

The landscape information thus represents several spatial levels: Volovický vrch is explicitly assigned to the surroundings of Tvrzice, while Včelenský vrch, Libín, and Boubín are located in the wider regional area. The ruin “Radomysl Mediumwave Radio Mast” and the ancient site of Chlumany also belong to this wider level. Natural features and historical destinations, each with their own geographic classification, therefore stand side by side.
