Stradonice: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes
Accommodation in Stradonice
Stradonice’s history stretches from an 18th-century water mill to tales of a witch and a ghost. The Stradonický mlýn, house number 22, is an example of folk architecture, comprising a two-storey brick mill building from the second half of the 18th century and a single-storey utility building dating from the 18th to 19th century. In 1878, the water mill had three water wheels; two powered the mill and one powered a sawmill.

Culture and History
Local tradition includes the Stradonice witch Makoša, who is said to have lived in Bačálky. According to local tradition, the ghost Kamtodám also appeared unexpectedly in Stradonice after nightfall.
The Stradonice fortress was first mentioned in 1505. It was damaged during the Thirty Years’ War and later disappeared. Another local feature is the Vodník Bačálek on the Zlonický stream, which is regarded as a local curiosity and a symbol of the region.
