Hotel Říčany - Říčany u Prahy
The town of Říčany , located roughly 20 km southeast of Prague , spread out over the slightly undulating woody countryside here. It is a pleasant place to live and is also of interest due to its wealth of history. According to Hájek’s Chronicle, the first mention of Říčany relates to 748. One of the unmistakable architectural monuments is the ruins of the once palatial castle dating back to the time of the last Premyslids. It was commissioned in 1260-1270 by Andrew of Všechromy, the high chamberlain of King Přemysl Otakar II and founder of the family of the Lords of Říčany. On the square, we can find the Church of St. Peter and Paul, which is a protected monument. The arches of the inconspicuous chapel in its interior are decorated with frescoes dating back to sometime around 1400. Nearby, we can see the Marian Column dating back to 1699. The Olivovna, established in 1890 by Mr. and Mrs. Oliva as an education facility for neglected and abandoned children resembles a chateau. It is now used as a children’s nursing home for respiratory diseases.
Říčany has become a sought-after recreation location and the town currently ensures state administration for a wide area. The municipalities of Průhonice , Čestlice , Nupaky , Kuří, Benice , Modletice, Jažlovice and others can be found nearby.
