Kolomuty: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

The Klenice watercourse and its floodplain are a defining landscape feature of Kolomuty. They fulfil landscape-shaping, ecological stabilisation and recreational functions.

Landscape

The wooded Chlum ridge in the southern part of the Kolomuty municipality forms an important recreational landscape setting for the municipality’s residents.

Geographical Location

Kolomuty railway stop is approximately a 600 m walk from the village centre and is located around 50 m beyond the municipal boundary in the territory of the neighbouring municipality of Židněves.

Getting Around

Cycle Route 8148 runs through Kolomuty and follows the Klenice. Cycle Route 8155 runs through Kolomuty between Bakov nad Jizerou and Kosořice and is connected to the Jizera Greenway in Bakov nad Jizerou.

A combined cycle and footpath is planned between Kolomuty and Plazy along Road III/27515. It is intended to become part of the cycle network in the east of the Mladá Boleslav agglomeration and will be marked with signs C9a/b.

Culture

The statue of Saint Joseph stands in the centre of Kolomuty’s historic village green. On the western side of the green stands a brick chapel with a post-and-beam bell tower.

At the site of the former stronghold, a rise approximately 2 m high with a 5 × 3 m barrel-vaulted cellar has been preserved. The location of the former Kolomuty stronghold and the village centre in the core of Kolomuty are registered as an archaeological site.

History

Stone tools from the Neolithic period have been found in the territory of Kolomuty, including flat axes and adzes approximately 7,000 years old. A Roman-period vessel dating from 400–0 BC found in Kolomuty is housed in the archaeological collection of the Muzeum Mladoboleslavska.

In 1923, a cemetery of the Urnfield culture from the Late Bronze Age was accidentally discovered during ploughing. It is associated with the Lusatian and Silesian-Platěnice cultures and is approximately 3,000 years old. A Bell Beaker-type vessel from the same area indicates that new ethnic groups from Western Europe settled there approximately 4,000 years ago.

In 1311, Jan z Kolomut is documented as the first member of the local noble family.
