Jeníkov: History and Golf Training

The church’s history and the statue of the Holy Saviour provide a historical focus, while golf training and the use of the Barbora Reservoir to train sport divers offer other perspectives. This lets you decide which topics matter to you during your stay before comparing hotel offers.

Church and historical traces

The present-day Church of St. Peter and Paul replaced an older building erected in 1551 and destroyed by fire in 1756. Below the church stands a statue of the Holy Saviour, dating from the first half of the 18th century. It therefore predates the fire that destroyed the predecessor building and provides a separate historical point of reference alongside the church’s building history.

Chapel and digital local history

A chapel in Jeníkov also has an architectural feature: a reused sandstone portal with finely crafted but damaged relief decoration. For those interested in architecture, this portal is another distinct aspect alongside the church’s history. Its material, reuse and the condition of the relief are all part of what makes it distinctive. A relief brings raised forms out from a surface while remaining connected to its background; this distinguishes it from a freestanding sculpture in space.

An online exhibition is titled “Jeníkov v proměnách času,” roughly “Jeníkov Through the Changes of Time.” It offers a digital point of reference if you would like to explore the town’s history. If needed, check in advance whether the exhibition is currently accessible, as its online availability may change.
