Dolní Václavov: Holiday Apartments and Houses

The Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary in Dolní Václavov has been a protected cultural monument of the Czech Republic since 1958. The present-day Baroque building was constructed in 1754–1755 on the site of an older medieval wooden church. Inside are richly carved altars with white-painted finishes and characteristic gilding, complemented by ornamental frescoes on two arch bands between the vaults of the nave.

Culture and History

The municipal area of Václavov u Bruntálu is also home to a historical detail: a Baroque sandstone statue of Saint John of Nepomuk stands there on a simple granite pedestal. A chronogram dates it to 1735.

Nature and Trails

The protected large-leaved lime tree “Lípa v Dolním Václavově” is located in the cadastral area of Dolní Václavov. In the surrounding area, a marked hiking trail leads north from Moravskoslezský Kočov to the former Uhlířský vrch volcano. Uhlířský vrch is a former volcano with an elevation of 672 metres; a small church stands on its summit. From Dolní Václavov, forest paths also follow the Kočovský potok stream to Moravskoslezský Kočov.
