Museum and technology

The Městské muzeum Česká Třebová presents the history of rail travel since the mid-19th century in a permanent railway exhibition, focusing on the period of the First Czechoslovak Republic. The Velorex exhibition at the museum describes the creation and development of the OS-KAR vehicle, later known as Velorex. It includes a true-to-scale model that children can sit in. The museum also offers a short Velorex ride of approximately 4 km, lasting 10 to 15 minutes, through the town centre and surrounding area. The long Velorex ride can last up to one hour and is limited to a maximum of 40 km.

History and culture

The Rotunda svaté Kateřiny is the only surviving Romanesque rotunda in the Pardubický kraj region. At the Jabkancová pouť held at the Rotunda svaté Kateřiny in November, visitors can taste Česká Třebová’s “jabkance”, potato cakes filled with quark.

The Kaple Panny Marie Pomocné is an immovable cultural monument in the Neoclassical style. It is associated with legends of miraculous healings of pilgrims who used the water from the so-called Pavlova studánka and asked the Virgin Mary for help. Concerts featuring organ music are regularly held in the Kostel sv. Jakuba Většího; during the season, it is open to the general public and tourists.
