Culture and architectural history

The Kostel sv. Jakuba Staršího church was originally a Romanesque building from the late 13th century and was later rebuilt in the Gothic and Baroque styles. The nave and chancel are decorated with 14th-century frescoes. Visitors can also see a valuable pulpit and a baptismal font from the 13th century in the church.

The Kaplička sv. Rodiny chapel stands north of Tečovice beside a road and dates from around 1800. Its interior walls are covered with paintings by Josef Mikeš.

Local festivals

Tečovská pouť is a traditional local festival. Tečovské hody are a revived local tradition. At Tečovské hody, a festival procession featuring the leading of a ram took place on October 18, 2025. This names two different forms of local customs: Tečovská pouť as a traditional festival and Tečovské hody as a revived local tradition; the mentioned festival procession is expressly associated with this date.

To compare a hotel in Tečovice, you can review the respective offer pages independently of the location information. Before booking, pay attention to the exact location, accommodation type, possible occupancy, included services, individual price components and the booking or cancellation conditions. This makes it possible to compare different offers objectively using the same important fields. Also check whether the displayed total price applies to the desired period and which services are expressly included or listed separately. Deadlines, payment conditions and possible cancellation restrictions may also differ from one offer to another. The relevant details are stated on the specific offer page in each case. When comparing, it is also worth checking the exact period for which the price applies, possible additional costs, the stated occupancy and the deadline by which free cancellation is available. The details of the individual offer are decisive in each case, not a general description.
