Local history and early settlement

Teplička was first mentioned in writing in 1475. The village developed from an agricultural settlement with several farmsteads and a mill. The date and the account of its origins answer different questions: the written mention places the village in the historical record, while the farmsteads and mill describe the agricultural character of the early settlement. For a history-focused stay, this offers a look at both the early written record and the settlement pattern of the time.

The chapel: date of construction and design

The chapel in Teplička was built in 1875. It has also been reconstructed and features a hexagonal bell tower. Hexagonal means that the tower has six sides. The construction date, reconstruction and design are three distinct aspects: the date places its construction in time, while the reconstruction and bell tower describe additional architectural features. These details give you both a historical and an architectural perspective on the chapel.

Commemorating the death march

The Death March Memorial in Teplička commemorates the victims of a death march in June 1944. This is a distinct focus for remembrance, alongside the topics of architectural history and agricultural development. Its historical context differs from that of the chapel: the chapel concerns architectural history, while the memorial commemorates the victims. The remembrance and its dating to June 1944 give this topic a clear historical context.

The multi-purpose sports facility in Teplička includes a mini-football pitch and a tennis court; it is open to the public for active recreation.
