Vinařice combines a cadastral area located entirely within the Český kras Protected Landscape Area with a remarkably well-preserved village character. The town-planning structure and particularly high-quality original vernacular buildings shape the village just as much as the geological and historical evidence in its surroundings.

Village Character and Architectural Heritage

Examples of timber-built vernacular houses can be found in Vinařice. Neoclassical masonry buildings are concentrated around the village square, which is also home to a Baroque chapel dating from the 18th century. Different elements of the local architectural history are thus found in a close spatial relationship here.

Natural Environment

South of Vinařice lies Vysoká skála, a wooded geological site with natural outcrops and small old quarries. Fossil-bearing limestone is exposed at Vysoká skála; the surrounding terrain contains surface karst features. The site is also a paleontological locality whose protection within the Český kras Protected Landscape Area has been recommended.

Bacín is home to a prehistoric cult site with a narrow karst fissure just below the summit. The Bacín plateau contains traces of settlement dating from the Paleolithic through the Neolithic, Bronze Age, Hallstatt period and Middle Ages.
