Nosislav: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

The Catholic Church of St. James the Elder is the only fortified church in the Brno-Country District. Its fortifications include a bastion at the southeast corner, numerous loopholes, and are 4 to 8 metres high.

Culture and History

Traces of a water moat are visible around the Nosislav Water Fortress. The protected heritage complex includes the Gothic Fortress No. 72, including its extension and covered entrance staircase. The most valuable lower section of the wall, a bay window in the house and a painted ceiling have also been preserved; the massive walls have a Gothic floor plan.

The Evangelical Church in Nosislav is a protected 19th-century building in the pseudo-Romanesque style and a historical testament to the development of religion in Moravia. Since 1993, it has been protected as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic and registered under registration number 8554.

Nature

The Nosislavská zátočina is one of the last remaining meanders in the lower reaches of the Svratka, where the river retains the character of a natural watercourse lined with riverside vegetation. The double meander features sandy beaches, gravel banks and steep, eroded banks.

Things to Do

The “Po hranici parku” cycling route passes through Židlochovice, Nosislav and Blučina. The Svatojakubská cesta runs along the left bank of the Svratka to the Boudecký Bridge.

Wine

At “Otevřené sklepy Nosislav”, visitors can taste wine and Burčák from local winemakers. The event traditionally takes place on the first Saturday in September from 12 noon.
