Chožov: Hotels and Accommodation

The 350 m-high Chožovský vrch rises above the municipality of Chožov. Remains of a fortification of unknown origin can still be seen on its summit.

Nature

The Třtěnské stráně protected area was designated on 20 December 2002 in the cadastral area of Třtěno. Třtěnské stráně is an important habitat for diurnal butterflies. The so-called Bílé stráně, with their thermophilous flora, lie northeast of Třtěno.

Culture and History

The present-day church in Chožov was built in 1838 and does not display any specific architectural style. An earlier church in Chožov was Baroque in appearance; however, individual structural elements indicate that it is very old. For the Church of Saint Michael the Archangel in Chožov, the brothers Jan and Záviš of Chodžov appointed priests between 1370 and 1379.

Mnichovský Týnec originally belonged to the Cistercian monastery in Osek and is first mentioned in 1341. The Chapel of Saint Wenceslas in Mnichovský Týnec was built in 1714. The present-day chapel in Mnichovský Týnec dates from the second half of the 19th century and is Neo-Gothic.

Třtěno is home to a statue of Saint John of Nepomuk dating from 1722. The Chapel of the Virgin Mary in Třtěno was built in 1870 at the municipality's expense. Třtěno also has a Baroque manor house with a chapel inside, which is now in very poor condition.
