Brozany nad Ohří: Renaissance Castle, Floodplain Forest and Excursions

Brozany nad Ohří can be explored through several clearly distinct interests: Renaissance history, protected floodplain forests, sports facilities and excursions. The local information provides specific points of reference for this instead of merely listing attractions.

Renaissance History and Regional Culture

The fortress of Brozany nad Ohří is particularly striking. After 1559, it was converted into a two-storey Renaissance château and decorated with figurative sgraffiti. The restored château houses a permanent exhibition on the history of the region, which is open to the public. In addition, the fortress offers guided tours of an exhibition on criminal law and of a torture chamber in the cellar. This allows you to experience the historic site through both regional history and a thematically specialised offering.

St. Gotthard Church also brings together several eras. It features Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque architectural styles. The nave contains a Renaissance sandstone pulpit from the second half of the 16th century. The complex of St. Gotthard Church is listed among the immovable cultural monuments in the Litoměřice administrative district. Those who would like to combine architectural details with individual historic furnishings during their stay will find several specific points of interest here.

Pístecký les and the Floodplain Landscape of the Lower Ohře

Pístecký les is a nature reserve protecting a contiguous complex of floodplain forests in the floodplain landscape of the lower Ohře. The Natura 2000 site Pístecký les is home to abundant populations of the specially protected spring snowflake (Leucojum vernum) and Vienna squill (Scilla vindobonensis). They create the floodplain forest’s colourful spring display. Brozany nad Ohří is one of the municipalities listed for the Natura 2000 site Pístecký les. This allows you to consider nature observation and cultural history as distinct focuses when planning your trip.
