Žeravice: Hotels and Accommodation
Žeravice combines protected monuments, the legacy of Jan Amos Komenský, wine and a cycling route.
Culture and History
The Church of the Beheading of St John the Baptist is protected as a listed monument ensemble with an enclosing wall, two gates and the grounds of the delimited area. It was built between 1722 and 1728; a visit can be arranged by telephone.
The cemetery features a sandstone cross designated as a cultural monument and serving as the central cross on the axis of the access path to the Chapel of St Barbara within the protected cemetery in Žeravice. The Cemetery Chapel of St Barbara was built in 1689, and its shingle roof continues to be maintained.
The Jan Amos Komenský Memorial stands on the site where the Assembly of the Bohemian Brethren was formerly held. It includes an exhibition of folk art and traditional crafts. Visits can be arranged in advance at the Žeravice Municipal Office.
At a synod held in Žeravice in 1616, the 24-year-old Jan Amos Komenský was ordained a priest. The Column of the Flagellated Christ (plague column) was restored and re-erected at its original location beside the road and a mature tree.
Wine and Events
Vinařstvà Žůrek offers wine tastings year-round in its cellar on the outskirts of Žeravice. Tastings usually begin with 10 to 12 samples of its own wines.
