Village Character and History

The settlement structure of Svésedlice is characteristic of the Haná region and takes the form of a circular village. The history of the village also includes its former affiliation with the Olomouc Chapter: from 1389 until the abolition of serfdom in 1848, Svésedlice was owned by the chapter. One notable historical figure is Ludmila Zatloukalová-Coufalová, who in 1931 became the first woman in Moravia to head a municipality.

Chapel and Village Green

The Chapel of Saint Francis of Assisi and Saint Thomas was built in 1902 on the site of a former wooden bell tower. The historically valuable centre around the village green is considered a spatially and functionally stabilised part of the built-up area. The central public space of Svésedlice, with its chapel, the cross of Saint Thomas and Saint Francis, and high-quality park landscaping, is to be protected. In front of the former school there is also a reconciliation cross dating from 1547, considered the oldest monument in Svésedlice.

Water and Landscape

The Beroňka watercourse runs through the built-up area of Svésedlice, while the Týnečka stream flows through the southern part of the municipality. A reservoir lies on the Beroňka north of the built-up area. South of the village, downstream, there is a pond on the Týnečka.

Sport and Exercise

Svésedlice offers a football pitch and a nohejbal court for sporting activities. The village also hosted for the first time a memorial event dedicated to hiking and cycling. The “Ludmila Zatloukalová–Coufalová Memorial” was intended to take place annually in the future.
