Discover Bílovice-Lutotín: Nature and History

Bílovice-Lutotín can be discovered through protected nature, a prehistoric fortified settlement and distinctive traces of local history. There are also chapels, a rare rural folk structure and a marked trail route with information about the landscape. This gives the destination a range of themes for planning your trip, without requiring nature and history to be considered separately.

Na Hůrkách and Hrad u Bílovic

Na Hůrkách is a 5.4804-hectare protected nature monument. The nature monument includes areas in Bílovice-Lutotín, making it an important natural feature of the destination. Hrad u Bílovic provides a historical focal point: the prehistoric fortified settlement lies on a spur of land above the Romže River. A massive rampart and two ditches have been preserved there. Na Hůrkách represents the landscape connection, while Hrad u Bílovic complements it with the site's history of prehistoric fortification. This makes it possible to combine nature and cultural themes when planning your trip.

Local History and Sacred Buildings

Bílovice was first mentioned in writing in 1305. Lutotín also has a documented historical connection to mobility: Lutotín station was established in 1919 on the railway line from Prostějov towards Konice and onward to Chornice in the Pardubice Region. Lutotín is also home to the Chapel of St. Anne, dating from 1822, and the Chapel of the Virgin Mary, dating from 1808. The Chapel of the Virgin Mary once contained a rare wooden statue of Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows. In Bílovice, the Chapel of St. Florian was consecrated in 1782.

Haná Architecture with Clear Visitor Restrictions

The Hanácký žudr in Bílovice is a rare rural folk structure: a masonry Haná farmhouse with utility buildings, a vaulted entrance hall and a granary on the upper floor. The building was constructed in the 18th century. For your planning, it is important to note that the Hanácký žudr is not open to the public. It is therefore part of the local architectural heritage, but should not be planned as a freely accessible excursion destination.

Marked Trails and Landscape Information

The “Stezky k Bílovskému hradu” project created a marked trail route through the area. Along the Stezky k Bílovskému hradu, information boards provide information about the local flora, fauna and geology. Four rest areas were also established as part of the project. If you plan your stay around a particular theme, this offers a combination of landscape observation, regional natural history and the historical connection to Bílovský hrad.

Which focus matches your search?

When researching accommodation, you can first decide whether the protected nature monument, the prehistoric settlement, the chapels and architectural heritage, or the marked trail route should be the main focus. Bílovice-Lutotín is therefore a clearly defined travel destination for planning a trip that gives equal consideration to nature and cultural themes.
