Králův Dvůr: Holiday Apartments and Houses
Accommodation in Králův Dvůr
Králův Dvůr Castle brings the historical side of the town particularly vividly to life: it was created in the 16th century by converting an earlier stone royal court. Its present appearance is the result of a Baroque renovation in the second half of the 18th century, probably attributed to Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer.
There are no guided tours of the castle; its interior can be viewed during certain events or at weddings in the wedding hall there. The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is a single-nave Baroque building with a set-back presbytery, a rectangular sacristy and a striking tower. The traditional town celebrations, Městské slavnosti, take place on the summer stage in the grounds of the Baroque castle in Králův Dvůr.
Trails and Geology
A yellow-marked hiking trail leads from Popovice railway station to Koukolova hora, which is considered a popular destination for walks; the highest-altitude caves in the Český kras are located there. The Zahořanský stratotype serves to protect a rock outcrop of the Zahořany Formation of the Czech Ordovician, with typical fossil fauna.
Playgrounds and Climbing
Lanové hřiště Počaply is freely accessible. It offers young children swings, slides and various climbing elements. Older children can enjoy climbing elements made of ropes and interactive elements, as well as attractions that promote their balance.
