The church with a glass roof in Neratov

Neratov is a small village near the Polish border in Divoké Orlice Valley. The tradition of a pilgrimage associated with a miraculous statue of the Virgin Mary was born there in the Middle Ages. Fire broke out in the Baroque Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary at the end of the Second World War and it survived only because there was not enough money to demolish it. This area with a unique atmosphere has been gradually restored. The overall impression is enhanced by both the spectacular glass roof, seen nowhere else in the Czech Republic, and the colorful spiritual program and renewed traditional fairs.

Litomyšl Chateau Hill

Chateau Hill in Litomyšl, East Bohemia, has a chequered history stretching over more than a thousand years. Today, most of the buildings in the area are of a Baroque nature, but a recent revitalisation resulted in the occurrence of several contemporary houses designed by top Czech architects, which are combined with historical buildings in a unique way. The latter include the chateau, the riding school, Piarist College, monastery gardens, the Faculty of Restoration of the University of Pardubice and the Church of the Finding of the Cross.
