Velke Mezirici: Hotels and Accommodations

The Velké Meziříčí Museum is located in Velké Meziříčí Castle. It was founded as a regional museum in 1893 and presents historical and natural history collections. The tour route also includes the castle salons, which commemorate the imperial maneuvers in Meziříčí.

The extensive castle park next to Velké Meziříčí Castle is freely accessible.

The tower of the Church of St. Nicholas houses an exhibition of historical photographs of Velké Meziříčí, a 3D model of the town, and the tower keeper’s apartment. After climbing 153 steps to the tower gallery, visitors can enjoy a bird’s-eye view of the entire town. The tower is expected to be closed in 2026 due to reconstruction.

The iron Fajtův kopec observation tower near Velké Meziříčí is 36 meters high and is intended to resemble a DNA double helix in its shape. The observation platform is located at a height of 30 meters; access is via a self-service machine.

Balinské údolí Nature Park was established in 1984 over an area of 440 hectares. It extends through the Balinka valley west of Velké Meziříčí, via Baliny, to Uhřínov, protecting the scenically valuable valley of the naturally meandering river.

Balinské údolí Nature Park is suitable for hiking, cycling, and cross-country skiing. There is an educational trail, part of the route has been adapted for bicycle traffic, and a blue-marked hiking trail runs through it.

The 15-kilometer circular route through Balinské údolí begins on the road from Velké Meziříčí to Uhřínov, opposite the turnoff to Hotel Amerika; parking for a passenger car is possible at the starting point.

Velké Meziříčí is located in the immediate vicinity of the D1 motorway between Prague and Brno, approximately at kilometer 145 from Prague.
