Libníč: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

The “Spa Culture in Libníč” educational trail provides detailed information about the local spa history.

Culture and History

The spa complex with its school, villas and church forms a valuable ensemble in Libníč; adjoining it is a wooded valley with remnants of landscaped park grounds.

At the end of the 18th century, more than 100 guests per year were treated at the spas in Libníč. A flood submerged the mines near Libníč in 1593. Five years after the 1593 flood, mining activity near Libníč came to a complete end.

The Vila Gabriela ensemble in Jelmo comprises Villa No. 12, Building No. 24, an orangery, a greenhouse and a garden. The original is located in the lapidarium of Borovany Monastery. The statue standing in Libníč today is a copy created by the academic sculptor Ivan Tlášek.

Paths and Landscape

The yellow-marked hiking trail from Libníč to Lišov passes the former spa buildings in Libníč, Vila Gabriela and Větrník.

The park by the Church of the Most Holy Trinity offers a peaceful setting for relaxation. The Schwarz Pond between Libníč and Jelmo offers riders and horses an opportunity for a short break along the bridleway.

Borovanský vrch [Borovany-Dvorec u Třebče] lies in the wider regional surroundings of Libníč. In the immediate vicinity of Libníč are Kantorova hora Hill [Libníč-Jelmo], Kamenný vrch Hill [Lišov-Červený Újezdec] and Baba Hill [Jivno].
