Horní Loučky: Vacation Apartments and Holiday Homes

Horní Loučky lies in the hilly landscape on the southeastern edge of the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands. The Bobrůvka, also called the Loučka, flows through Horní Loučky for a short stretch, forming a wider floodplain there. The area is characterized by deeply incised valleys carved by watercourses, very steep, in some places rocky slopes, and a narrow floodplain.

History

Horní Loučky has been documented in writing since 1353. In 1502, the two villages of Loučky, a ruined castle, a rectory, and a farm were sold to Jan and Václav of Lomnice. On April 16, 1519, the castle site and the village of Horní Loučky were sold to Tišnov Monastery.

Culture and Monuments

The Chapel of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary stands in Horní Loučky. The World War I memorial to the fallen near the chapel is made of gneiss and bears a marble plaque with the names of nine local residents. The bust of Hynek Kokojan depicts the local native from Horní Loučky in uniform with decorations; it was created in 1946 by the sculptor Josef Baják.

A marble cross stands in the fields on the road to Kaly between two linden trees; it was donated by the Halouzkova family in 1920. The sandstone cross on the village square bears the year 1864 on its base, along with the apparently later-added year 1883; the corpus is gilded. The municipal map portal provides information about sights and monuments.

Tradition

A traditional pilgrimage festival was announced in Horní Loučky for Sunday, August 16, 2026, on the occasion of the Feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.

In the neighboring municipality of Dolní Loučky, visitors can reach a red hiking trail that leads into the picturesque valley of the Bobrůvka.
