Lubnice – Želetavka Floodplain, Lubnické stráně and Preserved Villagescape

Lubnice is a destination for travellers who want to combine nature observation, a preserved villagescape and cultural discoveries. The natural surroundings are linked to the floodplain of the Želetavka River. At the same time, the village retains a traditional character that sets Lubnice apart from an arbitrary overnight accommodation address. If you are looking for a hotel in Lubnice, it is therefore worth looking at the landscape and the historical features that shape the character of the place where you stay.

Preserved Villagescape and Baroque Village Church

Lubnice has a preserved layout of the village centre. The traditional character of the buildings has largely been retained; disruptive building forms account for only a small proportion. For a walk through Lubnice, this means above all that not just a single building, but the interplay between the village centre and its buildings is part of the cultural experience.

A prominent cultural landmark is the Church of Saint George, called Kostel svatého Jiří in Czech. The Baroque building dates from the first half of the 18th century. Thus, in addition to its traditional villagescape, Lubnice also offers a clearly identifiable historic building. Travellers with different interests can combine a visit to the church with exploring the village centre without losing sight of the village’s rural character.
