Řendějov: Farmstead, Horse Riding and Via Czechia

Řendějov offers several distinct points of interest to consider when planning a trip: a protected rural farmstead, riding opportunities at Stáj Řendějov, and the Via Czechia Central Route. There are also historical points of interest in the village and in Nový Samechov. If you are looking for a hotel for a stay in Řendějov, you can first decide whether architectural history, horse riding or the village’s place on a multi-stage route will shape your stay. The local features below bring these themes into focus.

Farmstead and Local History

The rural farmstead at house number 7 in Řendějov is listed in the state register of immovable cultural monuments under number 45309/2-1161. The complex comprises a residential building, a two-storey brick granary with an arcaded gallery, a barn and an agricultural building. The structures show the different functions within the farmstead; the brick construction and the granary’s arcaded gallery are described in particular detail. The complex can therefore be viewed as a combination of residential and agricultural buildings, rather than simply as a single historic house. It offers a tangible architectural point of interest for visitors interested in rural building styles.

Řendějov was first mentioned in writing in 1380. This date refers to the village’s documented history, not to the construction date of the farmstead. Thus, there are two distinct historical points of reference: the village’s early mention and the complex, listed as a cultural monument, with its clearly identified buildings.

Horse Riding and the Via Czechia Central Route

Stáj Řendějov is located in the municipality of Řendějov, near Zruč nad Sázavou. The facility includes a 21 x 61 metre sand riding arena with geotextile and obstacle equipment. It is intended for recreational riders as well as those interested in competitive riding. Stáj also offers one-off training sessions in the riding arena and riding coaching. If horse riding is a deciding factor in your travel plans, confirm current booking arrangements and availability in advance.

The Via Czechia Central Route passes through Řendějov; along the route, the village lies between Koutský mlýn and the Babka observation tower. Řendějov can also be reached by bus on the route. Check the current timetable when planning a specific journey. This allows you to consider route planning and a possible visit to Stáj Řendějov as separate priorities for your stay.

Chapel, Memorial and Local Dining

A small bell-tower chapel stands in the centre of Řendějov. At the same time, the settlement has a scattered, irregular layout due to its varied terrain. The chapel is a specific point of interest in the centre, while the terrain shapes the settlement’s appearance. In Nový Samechov, a memorial commemorates the victims of the First World War. It provides a different historical perspective from the farmstead: remembrance is the focus here, while the farmstead reflects rural architecture.

There is also a restaurant in Řendějov. Check its current opening hours before planning a visit so you can include it in your travel plans at a suitable time.
