Holiday Apartment in Tesáre: Nature, Water and Culture

Tesáre is characterised by protected landscapes, the Priehrada Tesáre reservoir, historic architectural monuments and the Tesárske Vinobranie wine festival.

Nature

The SKUEV0135 Bočina Natura 2000 site lies within the cadastral areas of the municipalities of Tesáre and Závada and covers a total of 45.18 hectares. Tesársky park is a 1.96-hectare protected area with protection level 3. The protected features of Bočina include willow-poplar-alder floodplain forests and stands of common juniper. The Kyselka mineral groundwater spring, also known as “Vajcovka”, lies within the cadastral area of the municipality of Tesáre.

Water and Paths

The Priehrada Tesáre reservoir is located on the Zľavský potok stream at river kilometre 9.700. It is a category 3 waterworks structure and borders the northern edge of Tesáre’s built-up area. An educational trail to the Vajcovka spring runs along the reservoir’s right bank. The reservoir is used for fishing, swimming and water sports. More intensive recreational use of the Priehrada Tesáre reservoir requires suitable water-quality values and the absence of health risks.

Cycling is also represented in the local landscape by a specific route. Marked cycle routes towards the Považský Inovec mountain range pass through the cadastral area of Tesáre. The Vajcovka spring was made accessible in 2014 as part of a project by the Nadácie Ekopolis foundation under the “Nestlé pre vodu v krajine” programme, together with the municipality of Tesáre, volunteers from DHZ Tesáre, and the Kroko Velo and Babinec groups.

Culture and History

The Kokošová manor house forms a historical complement to the landscape. Its complex includes a Baroque chapel from 1772 dedicated to Saint John of Nepomuk. The origins of the manor house date back to the 17th century; it is also called Kaštieľ rodiny Lenárt. After 1770, the manor house was rebuilt in the Baroque-Classical style.

The estate also includes a historic park. Its particular value is based on its landscape design, preserved composition and dendrological composition. Kokošová manor house stands southwest of Tesáre, on a hill in a park at the edge of the village.

Local Tradition

The Tesárske Vinobranie wine festival is also part of the cultural life of the village. The 19th Tesárske Vinobranie took place on 16 September 2023. The 22nd Tesárske Vinobranie is announced for 5 September 2026. The two dates mark different points in time: one refers to an event that has already taken place, while the other refers to an announced date.
