Křižanovice: Holiday apartments and holiday homes

In Křižanovice, sacred architecture, an archaeological past and open landscapes come together.

Culture

In Křižanovice stands the Parish Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, an early Baroque building from the early 18th century. The church is listed as an immovable cultural monument. Behind the church, on a field island lined by two lime trees, stands the Chapel of Saint Isidore, also known as Izidorek or Boží muka, which probably dates from 1898. Beside the bridge over the Litava stands a statue of Saint John of Nepomuk; it is a copy of the original, which probably dates from 1722.
