Batouchovice is an inconspicuous village with 60 inhabitants. The surrounding forests invite you to take a leisurely walk. Alternatively, you can get into the saddle and start cruising around on your bicycles. But if the peace is too much for you, explore the triangle of interesting cities in the center of which we are located.
THE GREAT BETWEEN RIVERS
In the center of the city stands a beautiful castle, which is looked after by the Podstatzký-Lichtenstein noble family. Over the centuries, the Renaissance building (with the remains of Gothic fortifications) was supplemented with a Baroque wing designed by architect Jan Blažej Santini and some Neo-Gothic elements. The castle houses a museum where you can find an exhibition of weapons, baroque furniture, the history of the city, the private natural science collection of the head teacher Rudolf Divíšek or the cubist interior designed by the architect Pavel Janák from 1913.
The educational trail of the Bali Valley is also worth mentioning. The route runs between willows, poplars and alders and includes 12 stops. You can reward yourself for the process of self-education at the Jelínkova vila microbrewery. The beer here is prepared using the traditional hand-made 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 order a tour of the brewery with an interesting explanation by an experienced expert.
TREBÍC
Třebíč is a city where you can find elements of the Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque styles. 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 always floats here, especially on the first floor, where there is a beautiful ceremony hall. The building also houses an art gallery and the Kaiserpanorama - an optical device that was the forerunner of the cinematograph.
Since 2018, the castle in Třebíčí has been included in the list of UNESCO monuments, as well as the local Jewish quarter, the Jewish cemetery and the Basilica of St. Procopius. The Jewish museum with interactive elements is located very close to the synagogue, in the Seligmann Bauer house.
JIHLAVA
When you've seen the beautiful historic center in Jihlava from above, explore it from below as well. 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 the details of 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.
