Lubenec: Hotels and Accommodations

The educational trail Naučná stezka okolím Lubence combines local history, geology, and nature: across nine panels, it informs visitors about the local flora and fauna while also leading them through the picturesque landscape around Lubenec.

Landscape and Nature

Ruský kopec lies southeast of Lubenec and is a registered significant landscape feature as well as a botanically valuable area. About 2 kilometers southeast of Lubenec are the Liščí skály, granite rock formations with original vegetation.

In the Liščí skály climbing area above Lubenec, the routes are equipped with bolts as needed and marked with arrows; the Lubenecký pilíř is also located there.

Culture and History

Lubenec was first mentioned as a small town in 1415; in 1579, the settlement was again referred to as a small town. The neo-Gothic Church of St. Lawrence in Lubenec was built in 1846 on the site of an older Gothic structure.

In front of the Church of St. Lawrence, a Baroque statue of Saint Sebastian from 1733 stands on a tall pedestal. On the village square, a sculpture of Saint John of Nepomuk from 1745 stands on a new pedestal. In the Lubenec cemetery, there is a 19th-century wooden cross with a painted metal corpus.

In the village of Libyně near Lubenec, the Vitrážové muzeum displays copies of stained-glass windows from the Romanesque, Gothic, and Renaissance periods, as well as from the 19th century. The Vitrážnická dílna offers guided tours during which a guide explains the production of stained-glass windows and the finishing of glass.
