Rozdalovice: Church, Museum and Holské rybníky Educational Trail

The Church of St. Gall in Rozdalovice is a powerful Baroque building with a distinctive façade featuring two towers. It is situated on elevated ground in the town centre, north of the square and next to the chateau. The protected grounds of the Church of St. Gall include the church, a cemetery with tombs, an enclosing wall and the associated plots of land.

The spatial arrangement thus brings together several components: the church building is located in the town centre, while the protected grounds also include the cemetery, tombs, enclosing wall and associated plots of land. The elevated location and proximity to the chateau are part of the described position of the Church of St. Gall in Rožďalovice.

Culture

The Melantrich Gallery is housed in a listed building. The building's original timber-house construction includes an arcade walkway. The gallery also contains the original “Pamětní síň rodáků”, a memorial hall for people born in Rožďalovice. This memorial hall was moved there from the building of the old school. An average of four exhibitions are held in the gallery over the course of the year.

The gallery thus brings together several historical connections: the listed building, the arcade walkway from the original timber-house construction and the “Pamětní síň rodáků” moved from the old school. The memorial hall is explicitly dedicated to people born in Rožďalovice. In addition, an average of four exhibitions are held throughout the year across the gallery.

Town History

The Rožďalovice Town Museum is located in a former school building at 146 Husova Street, above the library. The museum's presentation ranges from the earliest times of the town to the end of the 20th century. The first hall of the town museum houses an exhibition about the educator Gustav Adolf Lindner and the printer Jiří Melantrich. The museum therefore covers both the town's historical development over time and two named figures from education and printing.

The layout of the town museum combines a broad historical period with two specific names. The presentation begins with the earliest times of the town and extends to the end of the 20th century. In the first hall, Gustav Adolf Lindner, the educator, and Jiří Melantrich, the printer, are the focus of a dedicated exhibition.

Nature

The Holské rybníky Educational Trail includes the Na Holi area. It features a diverse mix of woody vegetation, pastureland, forests and ponds. The educational trail itself is 2.7 km long and has several stations with information panels. The route connects the area's landscape features with individual stations along the educational trail.

The route passes through an area where woody vegetation, pastureland, forests and ponds are found alongside one another. Several stations with information panels are located along the 2.7 km route. The educational trail is therefore described not only by its length but also by its structured sequence of stations.

For children, the educational trail includes interactive elements. These include rope elements, a jumping-distance station and a dendrophone. The information panels and these interactive stations are components of the Holské rybníky Educational Trail, whose length is given as 2.7 km.

The interactive components thus comprise three different elements: rope elements, a station for measuring jumping distance and a dendrophone. They are situated alongside the information panels and together form part of the Holské rybníky Educational Trail. The information about the stations refers to the same 2.7 km-long educational trail in the Na Holi area.
