Komorovice: History and Activities

If you’re planning a stay in Komorovice, you can get a sense of the area through its history, municipal sports and recreation facilities, and a marked tourist route. The roads connecting it to the D1 and R/34 are also useful for orientation. Whether local history, sports, or a section of a route is what interests you most, these specific topics can help you decide.

Location between the D1 and R/34

Komorovice is near D1 exit 90 and on the R/34 road between Pelhřimov and Humpolec. This gives you a numbered motorway exit and a road connecting the two named towns as reference points for finding your way. If you’re arriving by car, factor this information into your route planning and check current road and access conditions before setting off; road conditions and access arrangements may change.

Local history across several periods

A papal document dated May 8, 1226, mentions Komorovice as the settlement “Comorovici.” In the 1360s, the Premonstratensians of Želiv sold the manor farm in Komorovice, along with all its land and the inn. Throughout the feudal period, Komorovice belonged to the Premonstratensian monastery in Želiv, with the exception of the rule of the Trčkové z Lípy in 1422.

These details show different aspects of the area’s history: an early mention of the settlement, a sale specifying what was included, and an ownership arrangement with a time-limited exception. If you’re interested in the history of Komorovice, these events can be distinguished without treating the sale of the manor farm as equivalent to the longer history of ownership.

Sports, play, and municipal opening hours

Use of the tennis court in Komorovice is free for residents and visitors. Check before your visit whether this arrangement is still in effect. Opening hours are listed for the public sports ground and children’s playground: both time slots start at 7:00 a.m., with the sports ground scheduled to remain open until 10:00 p.m. and the playground until 9:00 p.m. Check the municipal information in advance if you’re planning your visit for a specific time.

The Obstaculus course is designed for traversing monkey bars, climbing, hanging, swinging, pulling, and moving along the lower slope. These different activities give you a clear idea of how the course differs from a visit to the tennis court or sports ground. The spring rockers at the children’s playground are intended for children aged 3 to 8. This age range applies to the spring rockers; the stated opening hours apply to the playground.

A marked route towards Mladé Bříště

The Pípalka na Křemešníku route follows a blue-marked tourist trail as far as the road from Bystrá to Komorovice. From there, it continues for 2.5 km, mostly downhill, towards Mladé Bříště. This sequence matters when planning your walk: the distance and description of the descent refer to the section after the road, not to the entire route. Route descriptions and markings may change; check the current signs on site.
