Mokrá-Horákov: Hotels and accommodations

Mokrá-Horákov combines archaeological evidence, listed buildings, karst landscapes, and specific leisure activities. The municipality and its immediate surroundings showcase both historical traces and clearly designated natural and cultural sites.

Culture and History

Hlásnice is the archaeological site after which the Horákov culture was named. Traces of a settlement of the Jevišovice culture have also been documented there. In 1892, a richly furnished Hallstatt-period burial mound was excavated near Hlásnice.

Pekárna Cave, formerly also called Kostelík or Díravica, lies in the cadastral area of the municipality of Mokrá-Horákov. It is designated as a protected cultural monument of the Czech Republic. From Ochoz u Brna, the cave can be reached via a blue-marked hiking trail over a distance of approximately 2 kilometres.

Horákov Castle, also called Horákovský hrad, is an abandoned castle; its remains lie on a rocky spur above the Mariánské údolí valley. The fortified complex of Horákovský hrad is situated on a rocky spur with three ditches, with the inner ditch carved into the rock.

The Chapel of Saint Gothard was declared a cultural monument in 1996. The Chapel of Saint Barbara is a listed building and is no longer used for religious purposes. It is the oldest building in Mokrá and was probably built at the beginning of the 19th century.

Pacherův kříž is a large wooden cross on a rock in the forest above the Říčka between the Mokrá forester's lodge and Jelínkův mlýn. Masses are held at Pacherův kříž every year in June.

Landscape and Nature

The Rozhledna Mokrá-Horákov observation tower stands on the flat Skalky hill at an elevation of 362 metres on the northern edge of Mokrá. Rozhledna Mokrá-Horákov is open to the public year-round. In clear weather, the view from the observation tower extends as far as Pálava.

The Údolí Říčky Nature Reserve protects a geomorphologically valuable karst area in Devonian limestone, as well as natural forest and forest-steppe communities. The protected area covers the cadastral area of Mokrá u Brna.

Sivický les lies between Mokrá-Horákov and Sivice on the southern edge of the Moravian Karst.

Koupaliště Mokrák has an outdoor swimming pool during the summer season. Koupaliště Mokrák includes a paddling pool, water slides, and a playground. Beach volleyball and table tennis are also available there.
