Culture and History

The historic centre of Šestajovice is located on and around Náměstí 9. května. It features an oval green area, a chapel, a monument to those who fell in the world wars, and seating. The first buildings that formed the basis of the municipality of Šestajovice were constructed in these places at the beginning of the 13th century.

Nature and Trails

The Botanical Garden in Šestajovice is freely accessible. Benches and a covered seating area are available to visitors; the latter forms part of the adjacent cycle path.

The field avenues of Šestajovice follow historic corridors of field paths and are now used for walking and sports. Polní alej Běchovická continues to serve as a connection for pedestrians and cyclists between Šestajovice and Klánovice.
