Předklášteří: Porta coeli, Nature and Trails

Culture and History

Předklášteří can be explored through Porta coeli: the convent dates back to the 13th century, and a community of Cistercian nuns still lives there today. The monastic presence is linked to an architectural history that is visible in several distinctive elements.

The defining architectural features of Porta coeli include the richly decorated Gothic portal in the western gable of the Romanesque-Gothic Basilica of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, the chapter house, and the cloister. Those interested in architecture can consider these individual forms and spaces as a cultural focus in their own right.

The Podhorácké Museum in the former provost's building offers four permanent exhibitions and numerous seasonal exhibitions. For personal planning, you can choose between taking a close look at the architectural features and enjoying a broader museum visit, without having to place either topic in a fixed order.

Nature and Trails

Květnice Nature Monument lies on the boundary between the cadastral areas of Předklášteří and Lomnička. Vokounova vyhlídka is located on the blue-marked hiking trail through Předklášteří and offers views of the Svratka Valley and Květnice on the opposite side.

The Naučná stezka Předklášteří educational trail leads through the Deblín forest district. The paved Tišnov–Trmačov cycling path connects Tišnov and Předklášteří and follows the EuroVelo 4 route.

This provides various thematic options for planning your day: a viewpoint, an educational trail through the forest district, or a cycling connection between two places. You can decide for yourself whether you would like to focus on experiencing the landscape, learning about nature, or cycling.

The trails and viewpoints mentioned can also be considered separately when different interests come together during a trip. This keeps the choice of activities open and allows it to reflect the particular focuses you want.
