Bohuslavice: Baroque Church, Ponds and Hilly Landscape

Culture and Village Life

In Bohuslavice stands Kostel Nejsvětější Trojice, a single-nave Baroque church dating from 1747. Its tower stands behind the presbytery and is crowned with an unusual dome. Inside Kostel Nejsvětější Trojice there is an illusionistic fresco by Matyáš Lassler. The architecture, tower design and interior painting thus offer different cultural perspectives on the same building.

The folklore ensemble Vlašanky, founded in Bohuslavice, performs at folklore festivals and other cultural events. At the annual Anenské slavnosti in Bohuslavice, paintings by folk artists connected with Bohuslavice or photographs are exhibited. The annual fish harvest at Špakovský rybník is the most important event of the fishing year in Bohuslavice. Folklore, visual art and the connection with fishing thus add different accents alongside the village’s sacred character.

Nature and Landscape

The area around Špakovský rybník forms a quiet zone in the middle of the village. The Bohuslavický potok flows through Bohuslavice and empties into the Opusta River. In the southern part of Bohuslavice there is a cascade of ponds used for fish farming, with highly diverse flora and fauna. The forests and hills in the northern part of Bohuslavice belong to the Hlučínská pahorkatina. The forests around Bohuslavice offer opportunities for relaxing walks and rides on newly built cycling paths. Watercourses, ponds, and forest and hilly landscapes therefore stand alongside one another as clearly distinguishable natural themes.

For personal planning in Bohuslavice, culture, water, forests and cycling paths can be considered as separate interests. Those who focus on events and visual art will consider different points of interest from someone planning walks or rides on the cycling paths. The named landscape features and local festivals can be assigned separate priorities without prescribing a fixed order for the trip.

When choosing a holiday apartment for Bohuslavice, your own travel dates, the room category and the cancellation conditions can serve as practical points of comparison. This makes it possible to make the accommodation decision separately from the question of whether cultural events, Špakovský rybník, the ponds, forests or cycling paths are your personal focus.

For further planning, you can also keep the following place names in mind: Kyjovice, Slavkov, Filipovice, Uhlířov, Velké Heraltice, Sudice, Mokré Lazce and Opava.
