Accommodation in Obědovice
Culture and History
The Obědovice fortified site is designated as a significant archaeological site in category ÚAN I, dating from the Middle Ages to the early modern period. The site is approximately oval, measures 23 × 19 metres, and is surrounded by a body of water measuring approximately 106 × 75 metres.
The upper surface of the fortified site lies about 4 metres above the water level. It features a Classicist statue of Svatý Vavřinec, a sandstone memorial to those who fell in the First and Second World Wars, and a masonry bell tower. From the surrounding terrain, the fortified site can be reached via a 14-metre-long strip of land; on its eastern side, sandstone steps set into the eastern slope lead up to it.
A gradually shrinking fortified mound from the former swamp fortress has survived in the middle of a pond. The second historic fortress disappeared without a trace. The local theatre tradition has also continued: since its revival in 2004, the local theatre ensemble has remained active.
