Lhenice: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

The most significant monument in Lhenice is the Church of St. James. It has an early Gothic origin; the oldest records of the sanctuary date back to the 14th century. In the 1730s, it was remodelled in the Baroque style.

Culture

The Stations of the Cross in Lhenice were created in the second half of the 19th century and comprise 14 stations. They are situated in natural surroundings above the town on the edge of the forest and were completely reconstructed in 2016, including the Chapel of the Virgin Mary.

The Panský dům in Lhenice was built in the first half of the 17th century. The renovated Renaissance manor house was originally a fortress belonging to the minor nobility.

The square in Lhenice was also completely revitalised from 2015 to 2018. The restored Charles IV Fountain is operational and adorns the square in Lhenice.

The Blanský les Protected Landscape Area extends into the Lhenicko region. There, tourist activities are possible mainly on signposted hiking and cycling trails.

The Úvoz u Lhenic is an approximately 500-metre-long, reconstructed section of the original Linecká stezka. It features tourist facilities and interactive educational elements for children.
