Kaplice: Hotels and accommodations
Culture
The historic center of Kaplice was declared an urban heritage zone in 1990. A Renaissance town hall stands on its central square; House No. 215 on the square features figurative sgraffiti.
The stone fountain in Kaplice was built in 1646. Its central stone column records renovations in 1717, 1775, 1901, 1934, and 1996.
The Church of St. Peter and Paul is a Gothic two-nave church with a tower on the northern side of its western façade. Its tower and nave date from the 13th century; it is also a significant example of South Bohemian late Gothic architecture. The late Gothic Church of St. Florian stands immediately next to it. During the Napoleonic Wars, it served as a storage facility for military supplies and was severely damaged.
The former hospital near the Chapel of St. Barbara and St. Joseph is a Baroque architectural monument with unusually thick walls. The hospital served the poorest sick people and travelers. The Bělidlo Brewery was built in 1648 outside the town of Kaplice on the Malše River. The Buquoy Brewery was destroyed by fire in 1718 and rebuilt on a larger scale in 1732.
The Krampus Gallery is located in reconstructed cellars of a former Rožmberk brewery in Kaplice. It displays masks carved from wood or leather, as well as original Krampus clothing and equipment. These include photographs of Krampus shows in Kaplice and a film compilation of earlier Krampus processions.
