Discover Kašnice: Wine and Village Traditions

If you are planning a stay in Kašnice, you can choose your travel dates based on specific local interests. Wine, seasonal produce, events and leisure activities offer different things to focus on: a tasting is not the same as shopping, and an older event listing does not automatically mean that the event is currently scheduled. For your planning, the season, event date and preparations for individual activities all matter.

Wine and seasonal produce

The Vinařství Josef Valihrach winery’s wine shop is located at Kašnice 52. It stocks the winery’s full range, selected foreign wines and complementary wine-related products. It is a specific destination in the village for wine enthusiasts. As the selection and opening hours may change, you should check both in advance if you plan your visit around it.

Visitors can taste Burčák and wine at local winemakers’ premises. If you have a particular day in mind, ask about visiting arrangements in advance. The wine shop and a tasting are two different ways to explore wine: the shop focuses on its selection and complementary products, while the tasting is about sampling Burčák and wine.

In summer, passers-by can buy apricots, apples, grapes, pears, walnuts, eggs, potatoes, garlic and onions from small local producers. The selection ranges from fruit to eggs and other food products, so summer is the relevant time to travel if you plan to shop for these items.

Events and dates

A municipal calendar entry from 2019 describes the Kašnické hody as traditional costume celebrations with afternoon and evening programmes. If you want to plan your trip around this event, check the current dates. The Kašnická traktoriáda held its fourth edition in 2023; it will not take place in 2026. The two pieces of information therefore refer to different timeframes: the current date of the hody needs to be confirmed, while the cancellation of the Traktoriáda for 2026 is definite.

Local history and cycling

Kašnice was founded in 1785. Another historical reference is the newly straightened Imperial Road: it ran from Krumvíř through Kašnice along the ridge and onwards to Těšany and Brno. You can explore the village’s history both through its year of foundation and through a specific road route. The year of foundation answers the question of when the village began, while the route offers a different historical perspective on Kašnice, placing it in relation to the places mentioned.

Sports enthusiasts can use the multi-purpose sports field in Kašnice free of charge. Keys must be obtained locally for access, and the access arrangements may change. Therefore, check how to obtain the keys before your visit. A short section of the Moravská vinná cycle route runs through the southeastern part of the cadastral area of Kašnice. Check the signage and surfaces before setting out. The preparations differ accordingly: for the sports field, you need to check how to access the keys; for cycling, check the route signage and surface conditions.
