Batouchovice is an inconspicuous village with 60 inhabitants. The surrounding forests encourage quiet walks. Alternatively, you can get on your saddles and start cruising around on your bikes. But if it's too much for you, explore the triangle of interesting cities in the middle of which we are.
VELKÉ MEZIŘÍČÍ
In the center of the town there is a beautiful castle, which is cared for by the aristocratic Podstatzký-Lichtenstein family. Over the centuries, the Renaissance building (with the remains of the Gothic fortifications) was supplemented by a Baroque wing designed by the architect Jan Blažej Santini and some neo-Gothic elements. The castle houses a museum, where you will find an exhibition of weapons, Baroque furniture, the history of the city, a private scientific collection of the head teacher Rudolf Divíšek or a Cubist interior designed by architect Pavel Janák from 1913.
The Balinské údolí nature trail is also worth mentioning. The route leads between willows, poplars and alders and contains 12 stops. You can reward yourself for the process of self-education in the Jelínkova vila mini-brewery. Beer is prepared here using the traditional handicraft method. You will taste unpasteurized and unfiltered Harrach beer in various variants and treat your body to a lot of vitamin B. It is also possible to book a tour of the brewery with an interesting explanation by an experienced expert.
TŘEBÍČ
Třebíč is a town where you will find elements of the Romanesque style, Gothic and Baroque. For example, the Renaissance Painted House on Charles Square is beautiful. It was built in the 16th century by the Italian merchant Francesco Calligardi for his beloved. Love floats here all the time, especially on the first floor, where there is a beautiful ceremonial hall. The house also houses a fine art gallery and the Kaiserpanorama - an optical instrument that was the forerunner of the cinema.
The castle in Třebíč has been on the UNESCO list of monuments since 2018, as well as the local Jewish quarter, the Jewish cemetery and the Basilica of St. Prokop. The Jewish Museum with interactive elements is located close to the synagogue, in the house of Seligmann Bauer.
JIHLAVA
When you walk through the beautiful historical center from the top in Jihlava, explore it from below. You can walk 25 kilometers in the Jihlava underground if you want to see every corner. The biggest attraction is the mysterious phosphorescent corridor.
In Gustav Mahler's house, you will not only learn about the life of this great composer and celebrated conductor, but you will also explore the exhibition dedicated to the coexistence of Czechs, Jews and Germans in Jihlava.
And when it gets dark, enjoy an evening guided walk in the Jihlava Zoo.
