Lomy: Nature, Hiking Trail and History

Lomy offers plenty to explore in nature, hiking and history: there is a natural swimming pool in the village, a green-marked hiking trail runs through Lomy to Radkovice u Budče, and views from Horka Hill stretch across the surrounding area. In favorable conditions, you can also see the snow-covered peaks of the Alps from there. A chapel, mills and memorials provide further specific points of interest for planning your trip.

Nature, Hiking Trail and Views

Lomy has a natural swimming pool. A green-marked hiking trail also runs through the village to Radkovice u Budče. This gives you two distinct focal points for your travel decision: a specific place in the village and a trail leading to a named destination. If hiking is important to you, Radkovice u Budče provides a concrete destination to include in your plans.

Horka Hill in Lomy offers views of the surrounding area; in favorable conditions, you can also see the snow-covered peaks of the Alps. It is important to distinguish between these views when planning: views of the surrounding area and the possible distant view of the Alps are not the same. Only the Alpine view is explicitly dependent on favorable conditions.

A winter lime tree growing near the children's playground in Lomy has been protected since 2015. It is another nature-related feature in the village, but different from the natural swimming pool or the views from Horka: here, the focus is on a protected tree. If you also look out for such local features when planning your trip, this provides a specific, distinct point of interest.

Chapel, Memorials and Mills

The Chapel of St. John and St. Paul dates from 1806. Two memorials offer other historical points of interest: a memorial to those who fell in the First World War dates from 1920, while another, dating from 1946, commemorates fallen resistance fighters. Their dedications distinguish the two commemorative occasions, and the dates help place them in time. Together with the chapel, they provide several clearly distinct historical points of interest rather than one general history theme.

The Lomský Mill is part of Lomy and is situated on the Želetavka. The Lomský, Podcestný Mill was first mentioned in historical sources in 1511. This date refers to its first mention, not its year of construction. It therefore has a different time reference from the chapel's date of 1806 or the dates of the memorials. When exploring the history of the village, it is worth keeping these distinctions in mind: a stated construction date, a memorial date and a first mention each tell you something different.

Lomy's features appeal to different interests: the hiking trail has a specific destination, Horka offers views with a distant view possible depending on the weather, and the chapel, memorials and mill point to different historical contexts. You can take these differences into account when choosing your destination before looking for a hotel for your stay.
