Kunovice: Aviation, Traditions and Nature – Hotels

The Jízda králů is part of Kunovice’s history. The oldest known record dates from 1892. After its revival in 1996, the Jízda králů has been held regularly every two years, usually around Pentecost Sunday and approximately one week before the Jízda králů in Vlčnov. The festival and its accompanying events take place in the centre of Kunovice and its immediate surroundings.

The Kunovice Hody are also connected with a long tradition: the Svatováclavské hody s právem have been celebrated in Kunovice since 1918. The hodové právo is a central feature of the Kunovice Hody. It derives from the symbols of authority of municipal self-government and symbolises rank, power and authority. As part of the Kunovice Hody, the school of folk dance is also held regularly in August and September.

Architectural heritage includes the listed house No. 679. It was built in the first third of the 19th century after two devastating fires in Kunovice and preserves a traditional black kitchen. The current form of the Church of Saints Peter and Paul dates from the 18th century. The church is open during services.

In the surrounding area of Kunovice, the 5-km-long Kunovský les educational trail runs through a recreational forest close to the town, across predominantly flat terrain. Ten stops introduce typical plants and animals of the floodplain forest community in the Morava River floodplain. The educational trail begins at the clearing known as Jelení louka, near the cycle path to the Kunovice aircraft factory and Kunovice Airport.

In the surrounding area, Lesopark Kunovský les offers a public running track, an educational trail, a disc golf course and a children’s playground for leisure activities. The Jízdy králů Kunovice complex has a sports field with artificial turf, a skate arena and an outdoor fitness centre; sports equipment can be borrowed there free of charge. The complex is used year-round by locals and tourists for active recreation.

When looking at hotel and holiday-apartment offers in Kunovice, it is useful to start by comparing the specific key details. Included services, individual price components, and the booking and cancellation conditions may also play a role. This keeps the decision based on the terms actually stated.
