Which cultural landmarks define the village?

The Chapel of St. Anne is dedicated to St. Anne and dates from 1837. The wooden bell tower was erected next to it much later, on April 16, 2025. The two dates mark different points in time and refer to separate structures: the chapel’s construction and the tower’s erection. Visitors interested in culture and local history will find two clearly distinct historical reference points here.

The cultural centre is also part of the local landscape. Velký Beranov has a cultural centre with a dance hall. At the municipal level, Velký Beranov has a cultural centre with a function room and other facilities, offering residents opportunities to take part in cultural activities. This means the village can be explored not only through individual buildings, but also through its community cultural spaces.

What does the cycling route offer for trip planning?

The Jihlava–Třebíč–Raabs cycling route passes through Velký Beranov, making it a specific option for a cycling trip. For the entire route, about one third is developed as a cycle path; most of these sections can also be used by inline skaters.

Most of the route runs away from main roads, usually on field and forest tracks or traffic-calmed roads. When planning, you can therefore account for different types of terrain rather than assume the route is uniform throughout. As route conditions may change, it is advisable to check them before setting out.

What information is available about events and community life?

A municipal newsletter from the third quarter of 2013 described the sports and children’s day during the Beranov pilgrimage as an annual event organised by TJ. For that year, the report gives the date as Saturday, July 27. This date refers to the report from that time and is not information about current event dates. As a historical note, the day adds a glimpse of a past community festival to the village’s cultural landmarks.

The chapel and bell tower represent different construction periods; the cultural centre and event report offer other perspectives on the village. If you are considering Velký Beranov for its cultural attractions, this distinction helps you consider its architectural history and community life separately.

How can you plan transport and accommodation?

Jihlava public transport line 12 serves Velký Beranov. For a specific journey, it is a good idea to check the current timetable. The cycling route and bus line offer different ways to plan: one describes a cycling connection, while the other is a public transport service.

Then compare the location and amenities of accommodation with your own requirements. This helps you distinguish choosing a destination from choosing a specific hotel.
