Discover Horní Myslová

Horní Myslová lies 3 km southwest of Telč. Cultural monuments on the village green, historical connections dating back to the Middle Ages, and two signposted cycling routes give the place a distinct character. This makes it easy to tailor a stay to different interests: local history, cycling, or a closer look at land use in the municipality.

Location and orientation

The village lies at an altitude of 500 metres. Telč is not only the geographical reference point southwest of Horní Myslová; it is also the location of the nearest railway station. If you are planning to travel by train, check the current train services to Telč station. This makes the location easy to pinpoint on a map, while the train connection requires a separate check for your travel date.

A history with several connections

Horní Myslová is first mentioned in writing in 1385. At that time, the village belonged to Šternberk Castle, which was owned by Jindřich of Hradec. It also had a historical connection to the Telč estate, with which Horní Myslová remained associated until 1849. These details point to different historical contexts rather than a single episode in the village’s history. For those interested in culture, they provide a timeframe for viewing the village across a long period.

Cultural monuments on the village green

The bell tower and crucifix on the village green are listed as cultural monuments. Both have the register number ÚSKP 18071/7-4844. These two separate monuments bring cultural history together in one specific place and offer a local point of interest for anyone interested in the built heritage of smaller communities. Together with the written mention from 1385, they give a stay a cultural and historical focus without requiring a long list of sights.

Land use and landscape

The 2020 land-use figures show that 80 percent of Horní Myslová’s municipal area is used for agriculture and 11 percent is forest. The figures refer to the entire municipal area. They show that land use is strongly agricultural, with forests accounting for a smaller share. If the landscape character is also a factor in choosing a destination, these figures provide a specific picture of the surroundings rather than just a general description of the countryside.
