Petrov: Hotels and Accommodation

In Petrov, Plže is a vibrant center of winemaking tradition and a place for wine tastings. The distinctive white-and-blue façades of the Plže wine cellars are considered a symbol of Slovak winemaking and traditional rural architecture.

Culture and History

Plže was designated a village heritage conservation area on September 15, 1983, and is considered a unique and particularly valuable ensemble of Moravian folk wine-growing architecture.

The original purpose of the Zvonice v Rybářích was to warn of fires and possibly announce the time.

The foundation stone of the Church of St. Wenceslas was blessed by Pope John Paul II in Olomouc in May 1995. The foundation stone was laid on September 28, 1997; this established the basis for the September Festival in honor of St. Wenceslas, which is considered a modern tradition in Petrov.

The Baťa Canal has tourist boat traffic between Otrokovice and Petrov and, where applicable, as far as Skalica in Slovakia. In recent years, boat rentals with refreshments have been established along the Baťa Canal in Petrov.
