Kruh: Hotels and Accommodation
Accommodation in Kruh
Kruh is a foothill municipality with dispersed settlement. Its elongated settlement structure is aligned along the Kružský potok and the Class III road between Roztoky u Jilemnice, Kruh and Mříčná.
Landscape
Kruh lies at an altitude of 410 to 480 metres in a very elongated and relatively enclosed area with nearby visual and terrain horizons. The named mountains Strážník, Tábor, Přední Žalý and Zadní Žalý are located in the vicinity of Kruh.
Culture and Local History
The Kruh cinema has existed since 1924; at that time, it was part of a cinema network in the First Czechoslovak Republic. The cinema is considered a small village cinema and one of the few remaining institutions of its kind against the backdrop of the decline of rural cinemas. Following digitisation in December 2016, it received a larger screen and a 7.1 sound system; the cinema auditorium is also heated.
The traditional Adventní podvečer has been held regularly in Kruh since 2007, at the end of November, and includes, among other things, exhibitions of nativity scenes and old baking moulds. The Tvrziště u čp. 67 archaeological site in Kruh is situated on a triangular spur above Kružský potok and comprises two masonry buildings.
Tuláčkův statek is an impressive timber-built farmstead with a Baroque gable; it was formerly the seat of a factor. Statek čp. 1 is an example of late Baroque folk architecture in the Podkrkonoší region, with a typical log construction and decorated gables.
