Komárov: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Nature and Trails

From Komárovský kopec hill, with its cross dating from 1833, there are views of Haná, Nízký Jeseník and the Zábřežská vrchovina hills. On the hill there is a covered gazebo with benches and a table where visitors can rest during walks and outings. There is also an information board and a summit book near the gazebo.

The Komárovská stezka pro děti is an easy trail aimed primarily at families with children. Its theme changes throughout the year according to the seasons. The route leads from the retirement home through a new cherry avenue to a fire pit with seating beneath a small wooded area, continues along a biocorridor and ends at the chapel. Five stations with interchangeable panels encourage children to learn about nature, reflect and engage in light exercise. A children's playground in the grounds of Domov seniorů Komárov is open to the public.

Culture and History

The Chapel of the Virgin Mary was built at the end of the 19th century along the path used by the inhabitants of Komárov to reach the church in Mladějovice. After a long period of disuse, it was reconsecrated in 2005. The historic stone cross dating from 1823, together with the chapel and a lime tree, forms the historic centre of Komárov village square.

The first explicit written mention of Komárov dates from 1412/1413. The settlement was established during one of the final phases of settlement in the Šternberk area at the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries.
