Kladeruby: Chapel, Churches and Cycling Routes

If you consider cultural history and cycling when choosing a travel destination, Kladeruby offers points of interest for both. Local highlights include historic religious buildings, marked cycling routes and the Fit Zone with its neighboring facilities. The details below will help you decide what to focus on during your stay and match your search for a hotel in Kladeruby to your travel plans.

The Chapel of Panny Marie and its history

The small Chapel of Panny Marie was built in 1843 in Baroque forms. A statue of Saint John of Nepomuk dating from the mid-18th century is located on its side wall. The chapel also has a bell from 1717, installed in the tower. It depicts Saint George fighting a dragon and bears an inscription. The statue and bell therefore date from an earlier period than the construction of the chapel. The architecture, statue and bell offer different historical points of interest at a religious building.

Church and historical periods

A more recent period in the town’s history is reflected in the Church of sv. Cyrila a Metoděje. It was built in 299 days, between 1998 and 1999, and consecrated in May 1999. The church was opened to visitors that same year. If you are planning a visit, check the current visiting arrangements in advance.

The first mention of Kladeruby appears in an undated document whose creation is dated to 1141. The town’s name also points to its history: it derives from an Old Czech word for a settlement of lumberjacks or woodcutters. Together with the dates of the chapel, bell and church, this provides a timeline reaching far back before the more recent buildings.

Cycling routes, Fit Zone and local attractions

Marked cycling routes 6215 and 6214 run through the cadastral area of Kladeruby. They are two separate routes. If you include either in your plans, check the current signage on site. This information is a useful starting point for anyone considering cycling as part of their stay; follow the signage to check the specific routes.

The Fit Zone Kladeruby includes a fitness area with exercise equipment. Next to the Fit Zone are a children’s playground, a multi-purpose court and a workout area. These neighboring facilities are different from the cycling routes: they are several named areas at one location, while the routes are two marked trails in the cadastral area. Which of these options matters for your stay depends on whether you would rather include local facilities or cycling routes in your plans.

Another local attraction is a wooden statue of Saint Hubert, located by a pond in the Podhájčí part of the town. It complements the religious buildings and the Fit Zone with a single, clearly identified place. For your trip planning, you can therefore distinguish between different interests: historic buildings, cycling, Fit Zone facilities or a local attraction by a pond.

Getting there by bus

The “Kladeruby – obecní úřad” bus stop is on road III/4395, which is served by bus routes. If you are planning to travel by bus, check the timetable for your travel date, as schedules can change. Along with the local attractions and cycling routes, the bus stop information offers a specific point to plan around without treating the different options for a stay as interchangeable.
