Zaječí: Wine Route, Church and Chapel

When planning a stay in Zaječí, you can start by choosing your focus: the wine route, the church, a wine-related tour through the town or destinations in the surrounding countryside. The different routes and activities offer ideas to help you plan your visit around your interests.

Wine Route and Wine-Related Tour

The Velkopavlovická Wine Trail is 109 kilometres long, signposted and leads to 31 wine-growing communities. In Zaječí, it passes near the Church of St John the Baptist. So if you plan to visit the church, the route is nearby. Signposting and route conditions may change; check the latest local information before planning your trip.

Vinné kešky is an approximately two-hour wine-related experience route through Zaječí that ends with a tasting of sacramental wine. The two activities differ in scope: the trail leads to wine-growing communities, while Vinné kešky is an experience route through the town. If you plan to take the tour, check the current booking and tasting conditions in advance.

Church, Tours and Gallery

The Church of St John the Baptist has a late Gothic core dating from 1508 and features fortification elements. Both features offer concrete points of interest for exploring the building. For visitors who would like to see more than the exterior, tours are offered of the church, its tower, underground rooms and parish gallery. As visitor access may change, check the current conditions before your trip.

The parish ART gallery displays works by painters, ceramic artists and jewellery designers. If you would like to include the gallery in your visit, check its current accessibility in advance.

Viewpoints and Circular Route

The brick Dalibor observation tower stands in the Milovická pahorkatina hills southwest of Zaječí and is 11 metres tall. It is freely accessible year-round; nevertheless, check access before making a specific visit. On the northern edge of the municipality, the Chapel of St Florian stands on a prominent hill. From there, the view extends far across the Novomlýnské reservoirs and Pálava. This gives you two different destinations to consider: the brick tower southwest of Zaječí and the viewpoint by the northern chapel.

The Zaječský walking circuit is 6 kilometres long and runs entirely along marked hiking trails. Check locally for any changes to the route before setting out. The stated length and information about the markings can help you include this circuit in your day’s plans.
