Bohušov: Church, Burial Sites and Travel Planning

A trip to Bohušov can combine local history with practical planning. The parish church of St. Martin is at the heart of the town’s history, while the burial sites are at clearly distinguishable locations. You can also include the campsite and recreation area, which has 20 cabins for three people, when planning your accommodation. The tourist information centre provides guidebooks and information on cycling routes, and can arrange reservations at the local recreation centre. Bohušov lies in the western part of the Osoblažsko area, on the Osoblažská narrow-gauge railway.

Parish Church and Historic Burial Sites

The recently reconstructed parish church of St. Martin stands in the centre of Bohušov. Herbort z Fulme, the founder of Fulštejn Castle, is buried in its crypt. This connects the church’s central location with a specific person from the history of the castle’s founding. For travellers interested in the history of Bohušov and Fulštejn, this is a notable point of reference.

The richly decorated tomb of Austro-Hungarian General Laufer is in the cemetery next to the parish church. It is in a different location from Herbort z Fulme’s grave in the crypt: Laufer is buried in the adjacent cemetery, while Herbort is in the church crypt.

The significant Gebauerova tomb is at the edge of Bohušov, in the direction of Matějovice. This directional reference adds another landmark to the information about the town centre. The three burial sites are in different locations: Herbort z Fulme is buried in the crypt, Laufer in the cemetery next to the church, and the Gebauerova tomb at the edge of town in the direction of Matějovice. This makes it possible to distinguish the church in the town centre, the cemetery beside it, and the tomb at the edge of town.

Information and Cycling Routes

The Bohušov tourist information centre provides visitors with guidebooks and information on cycling routes. If cycling routes are relevant to your trip, you can include the information provided in your plans. The centre can also arrange reservations at the local recreation centre for visitors. This service is separate from the guidance provided by guidebooks and cycling-route information. As reservation services can change, check in advance whether the centre can arrange the reservation you want.

Accommodation and Location

The campsite and recreation area in Bohušov has 20 cabins for three people. This specifies both the number of cabins and the intended occupancy of three people per cabin. Compare the occupancy with the size of your travel group and check the capacity before booking, as it may change. If your travel group is a different size, check in advance what specific occupancy arrangements are possible.

Bohušov lies in the western part of the Osoblažsko area, on the Osoblažská narrow-gauge railway. This identifies the town’s location within the region and its connection to the railway. If you plan to use the narrow-gauge railway during your stay, check the timetable for the relevant day. This will help you align your plans with the times that apply on the day of your visit. Location and timetable answer two different questions: where Bohušov is and when a journey fits into your day.
