Krchleby: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Krchleby is home to the pseudo-Renaissance Chapel of the Guardian Angel. The Čermák couple had it built at their own expense in 1904; the chapel stands approximately in the middle of Krchleby.

Culture and History

The archaeological site “Na Husově” lies within the administrative area of the municipality of Krchleby. Near the municipality stands a Dutch-type windmill that is privately owned. It can be visited by prior telephone arrangement; original historical objects and an exhibition on traditional crafts can be seen there.

Landscape and Trails

Krchleby is probably a High Medieval green village with a semicircular village green surrounding the Klobuš stream. The Klobuš stream flows through Krchleby. A biocorridor with existing willow and alder growth along the banks runs alongside the stream.

The history of transport is also part of the village’s character: the historic road from Nymburk to Mladá Boleslav ran through Krchleby; today, road I/38 follows its route. The field paths in Krchleby are used for tourism and cycling in addition to agricultural purposes.

Krchleby is connected to tourist routes linking visits to Loučeň Chateau with other nearby destinations.
