Radějovice: Farmstead, chapels and landscape

You can get to know Radějovice through several specific features of the village: the historic farmstead on the village square, chapels with different architectural features, and surroundings of fields, meadows and forests. If you are looking for hotels in Radějovice, these highlights can help you choose a destination: the village is home to historic buildings, while the surrounding area is ideal for walks and hikes. The Strakonice–Netonice bus route and a class III road also help with planning your journey. This lets you decide before searching whether your stay should focus more on local history or time in the countryside.

Village centre and farmstead

Farmstead No. 12 is located on the village square, north of the church. This rural farmstead is one of the region’s surviving historic monuments. It provides a clear landmark for finding your way around the village, bringing together a specific type of building and a precise location: the village square, house number and position north of the church. If you are interested in regional architectural history, this is a distinct highlight alongside the chapels.

A restored chapel stands in the village centre beneath mature lime trees. Its central location and mature trees give the building a different connection to the village. Together with the farmstead, it means that both a historic residential and agricultural building and a chapel are among the notable structures that distinguish the village’s features.

Chapels and historic dates

Radějovice has two chapels dating from the 19th century. The Chapel of the Virgin Mary is a simple rectangular building with a small bell tower on the roof ridge. The roof ridge is the upper edge of a roof; the small bell tower is therefore a clearly defined architectural detail. In front of the chapel is a cast-iron cross on a stone plinth. It is a distinct feature in front of the building and complements the chapel’s architectural details.

A niche chapel dating from 1895 stands in front of house No. 18. Radějovice was first mentioned in writing in 1334. These dates refer to different historical milestones: 1334 marks the village’s first written mention, while 1895 is the year the niche chapel was built. Together with the general information that the two chapels date from the 19th century, this distinction helps separate the history of the village from the dates of individual buildings.

Landscape and travel

A stream flows through Radějovice and is a right-bank tributary of the Cehnický potok. This identifies the stream in the village and distinguishes it from the named watercourse it flows into. The area around Radějovice includes fields, meadows and forests, and is suitable for walks and hikes. Two different themes therefore sit side by side: the village’s architectural and local history, and activities in the surrounding countryside. You can decide whether your stay should focus more on local buildings or on walks and hikes.

A class III road runs through Radějovice. The Strakonice–Netonice bus route also stops in Radějovice. Check the timetable before travelling, as routes and service frequencies can change; road conditions can change too. You can plan your journey using the information that applies to your trip.
