Discover Prusy-Boškůvky

Prusy-Boškůvky combines impressive cultural monuments with trails through the surrounding area and distinctive landscape features. If you are looking for a place with historical traces, walking opportunities and active pursuits for your trip, you will find several different points of interest here: from the Baroque church and a historic fortification site to a blue-marked long-distance hiking trail and long-distance cycling route No. 5029.

Cultural Monuments and Historical Traces

An important landmark in Moravské Prusy is the Baroque Church of St. George. It was built in 1733 according to the plans of architect Domenico Martinelli and is a cultural monument. It therefore offers a tangible insight into the architectural and local history without limiting the visit to a single historical detail.

Boškůvky also has a notable historical landmark: a bell tower from the end of the first half of the 18th century stands in the village square. The bell tower is also a cultural monument. Another trace leads even further back. The origins of the former fortification are associated with the end of the 14th and the beginning of the 15th century. The abandoned fortification has visible remnants of the foundations of a central hill and the ditch surrounding it. The historical character of this site therefore lies in the visible remains, not in a fortification described as still existing today.

The cultural centre complements these historical destinations with a social and cultural meeting place. It is used for balls, the local church fair, children's carnival celebrations, senior gatherings, Christmas parties, Mother's Day and children's theatre. Thus, in addition to buildings and traces in the landscape, local events are also part of Prusy-Boškůvky's documented cultural life.

Water, Biocorridor and Protected Plants

For walks in the immediate vicinity, you can visit the new municipal pond. It is part of a biocorridor that runs through the cadastral area of Prusy-Boškůvky. This makes the pond more than just an individual landscape feature: it is also part of an ecological context within the municipality. The body of water Pruský rybník, located north of Prusy-Boškůvky, should be considered separately.

Another natural-history point of interest concerns Zouvalka. Fragments of steppe vegetation of the Cirsio-Brachypodium pinanti type are preserved there, including particularly protected plant species. Those who wish to take unusual landscape and botanical features into account alongside culture and activity will find an independent thematic aspect here.

Hiking, Cycling and Active Days

A blue-marked long-distance hiking trail runs through Moravské Prusy on the route from Vyškov to Bučovice. For cyclists, long-distance cycling route No. 5029 is relevant; it leads from Vyškov via Prusy-Boškůvky to Koryčany. Both routes give the surrounding area a clear connection to longer tours, with the documented routes catering to different forms of travel.

The Stáj Boškůvky riding club offers further opportunities for active leisure. Children and adults can join the club and take part in equestrian sports. The TJ Sokol sports complex also has a small-sided football pitch, two sand-filled nohejbal courts and an artificial-turf court. The locally described range of activities therefore extends from outdoor exercise and equestrian sports to various playing surfaces.
