Discover Hradec-Nová Ves

Hradec-Nová Ves offers several points to consider when planning your trip: cycling along the Moravská stezka, hiking on a green-marked trail, ball games at the multi-purpose sports field, and insights into the history of the fire brigade and the village. There is also the Chapel of St. Anne, a peace monument and a medieval cellar. This gives you the opportunity to decide whether to focus your stay on exercise, sport or culture.

Cycling routes and landscape

The long-distance cycling route Moravská stezka passes through Hradec-Nová Ves. On the Jeseníky section, the village lies between Mikulovice and Písečná. This sequence of stages places Hradec-Nová Ves along the route. When planning your bike ride, also check the current route signs.

For hiking, there is another point of reference: a green-marked hiking trail runs through the northern part of Nová Ves in Hradec-Nová Ves. The cycling route passes through the village, while the hiking trail is located in the northern part of Nová Ves. This makes it possible to distinguish between the two routes by the type of tour and their described course. Before setting out, it is advisable to check the current trail markings. Hradec-Nová Ves lies on the left bank of the Bělá, and forests extend across the surrounding area. These landscape features provide additional context when planning your route.

Sports field and opening hours

The multi-purpose sports field is intended for ball games such as nohejbal, volleyball, five-a-side football, tennis, badminton, basketball and soft tennis. The wide range gives you several ways to include a sporting activity in your stay. The field is freely accessible every day from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and is closed in winter. Before visiting, it is advisable to check, as individual facilities or markings may change.

Fire brigade history at the Minimuzeum

The Hasičské minimuzeum was established in 2008 with the support of the Olomoucký kraj in the former fire station No. 48 in Hradec. Its exhibits include a 1955 PRAGA RN fire engine and the motor-driven pumps DS 16 and PS 8. Panels cover the development of firefighting technology, the history of the local fire brigade and the principles of firefighting. The traditions of St. Florian as the patron saint of firefighters and the history of the municipality are also among the topics. The exhibition thus brings together historical equipment with the development and traditions of the fire service. Visits are possible by prior telephone arrangement at 584 423 086.

Chapel, monument and medieval cellar

The Chapel of St. Anne was rebuilt in 1870 after the earlier chapel burned down in 1865. The peace monument stands in Hradec-Nová Ves at a bus stop; its inscription reads “Památník míru 1945–1960”. Another historical point of reference is a medieval cellar beneath a house, where remains of a former fortification were discovered. Its date of construction cannot be determined. Together, these details reflect different historical connections: a chapel history with established dates, an inscription bearing years, and a cellar whose date of construction cannot be determined.

The visiting arrangements also differ for planning purposes: for the sports field, take its hours and winter closure into account; for the Minimuzeum, visits require a prior telephone arrangement. If you are weighing several interests, you can consider these arrangements separately alongside the respective topics.
