Třtěnice: St. Anne’s Chapel, local history and cycling route

Třtěnice lies in the valley of the Lužanka stream. For planning your trip, St. Anne’s Chapel, cultural landmarks in the village centre, a marked cycling route and the history of local events offer different points of interest. The information spans from the first mention of the village to dated editions of a festival. This lets you shape your stay around local history, cycling or events.

St. Anne’s Chapel and local history

St. Anne’s Chapel is originally Baroque; a nave was added in 1902. A nave is the main, longitudinal section of a church building. This distinguishes two aspects of the building’s history: the architectural classification of the original structure and a later addition. The approach to the chapel leads through a linden avenue—a separate feature alongside its design and addition. Třtěnice was first mentioned in 1391. This date refers to the village, while 1902 dates the addition to the chapel. The two years therefore mark different historical reference points.

Cultural landmarks in the village centre

The Holy Trinity group stands on a stone plinth at a crossroads in the village centre. Also in the centre is the former school building No. 53, identified as a cultural heritage site of local significance. This designation is recorded in the 2016 land-use plan. Together, the two landmarks broaden the view of the centre’s cultural history beyond the chapel: one is a group at a crossroads, the other a former school building, each representing a different local point of interest.

Landscape and cycling

The Lužanka stream valley describes the landscape setting of Třtěnice. The marked cycling route 4140 also passes through the village. Check its current status before setting off. These details offer different planning reference points: the valley describes the landscape, while the cycling route is a marked trail through Třtěnice. The protected zone of the Hluboký Kovač natural monument is also designated in the surrounding area as a nature-conservation requirement. The landscape, cycling route and protected zone are distinct aspects of the local area.

Putting events in context

The “Moped Tour” has been held in Třtěnice with Jawa motorcycles since 2008. The Třtěnice Beer Festival was held for the 15th time in 2022 and the 16th time in 2023. The motorcycle event and the beer festival therefore have different themes. If you want to plan your trip around a festival, check the dates for your intended travel period.

Choose your stay based on your reason for travelling

When considering Třtěnice as a place to stay, you can first decide what interests you most: architectural and local history, a ride along the cycling route or an event. The village’s history also offers reference points across different periods—from its first mention in 1391 and the addition of the nave in 1902 to the event dates. If you are looking for a hotel in Třtěnice, tailor your search to your planned stay and reason for travelling.
