Starovičky: Hotels and Accommodation

The Way of the Cross consists of 14 stations in the form of crosses made from steel profiles. The project for the Way of the Cross of Fr. Václav Drbola was created near historic stone wayside shrines from the 15th century and was intended to connect them with the U Obrázku lookout tower. At the Krojové hody in Starovičky, local traditions take center stage on the fourth Saturday and Sunday in July. The program includes a festive procession of the Stárci and the costumed Chasa through the village, followed by an evening of hody entertainment.

Starovičky belongs to the Hanácké Slovácko region, represented here by a southern variant of the Haná-Slovak folk costume. During the 9th Pilgrimage on Foot, a prayer in the cemetery is followed by a walk to the Way of the Cross, Mass in the church at 4 p.m., and then a communal gathering in the parish house.

The present-day U Obrázku lookout tower was built on the site of the former Vyhlídka U Obrázku lookout and approved for use on December 11, 2020. The lookout tower includes a covered shelter with seating. From there, there is an unobstructed view of the Pavlov Hills, the Pálava Lakes, and the Malé Karpaty Protected Landscape Area (CHKO Malé Karpaty).

At the wayside shrines near Starovičky, there is an information board and seating.
