Jimramov: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Jimramov lies at the confluence of the Fryšávka and Svratka rivers in the Hornosvratecká vrchovina, on the eastern edge of the Žďárské vrchy Protected Landscape Area. The combination of the river landscape, historic town centre and distinctive buildings shapes the character of the town.

Culture and Local History

The historic centre of Jimramov was designated an urban conservation area in 1990. A walking tour with 11 stops is marked on the façades of the buildings. The conservation area is centred around a long, narrow, funnel-shaped square, lined mainly with houses featuring 19th-century historicist façades.

One of the town’s defining buildings is Jimramov Castle, a Renaissance structure remodelled in the Classical style in the 18th century. In 1746, Marie Antonie z Waldorfu had the north wing of the castle and a covered passage to the oratory of the Catholic church built.

The Evangelical Church of Jimramov preserves a nave built between 1784 and 1786 with early Classical elements; the Empire-style tower was added between 1883 and 1884. The church also has a high-quality organ, which is used during services and concerts.

The Síň rodáků (Síň Rodáků jimramovska) focuses on the life and work of Jan Karafiát, life in the Vysočina region with a nativity scene by the local woodcarver Pivoňka, and personalities born in Jimramov.

Park and Events

Bludník Park is a former English-style castle park dating from around 1800; trees from the original arboretum have been preserved. Since 1990, it has hosted the Otevřeno festival.
