Byšice: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Byšice showcases its history particularly impressively at the château: the Baroque, four-winged complex has an enclosed courtyard and a Salla terrena in the garden wing. Originally, it was adjoined by an extensive château park. Today, the château is severely dilapidated; some parts are badly damaged, and its condition remains critical.

Culture and History

The Church of St. John the Baptist is also part of Byšice’s historic heritage. It forms part of a Baroque complex dating from 1690 to 1693.

The Jewish cemetery in Byšice is protected as a cultural monument and registered under number 106638. It is located on a hill in the eastern part of the municipality on Hřbitovní Street. The cemetery contains 197 identified gravestones with Hebrew, German and Czech inscriptions; they date from 1723 to the 1930s.
