The Church of St Procopius is a single-nave Baroque building completed in 1736. It stands on oak piles; its foundations are reinforced with rubble stone up to 1 m above the surrounding ground.

West of the Church of St Procopius, the remains of the Vlkoš Fortress can be found in the gardens of agricultural farmsteads. Near the Vlkošský mlýn Mill, at the beginning of Na Loukách Street, stands the niche chapel of Our Lady of Sorrows.

On the outskirts of Vlkoš, the Vávrův mlýn Mill stands on a millrace diverted from the Moštěnka River. A complete lower works with a crown wheel drive has been preserved in the mill.

The present-day Chapel of Saints Cyril and Methodius in Kanovsko was built in 1863 by citizens of Kanovsko. It has a memorial plaque commemorating the residents of Kanovsko who fell in the First World War.
