Winter and Mountains
At 1,129 m, Radhošť is the highest and also the best-known peak in the Trojanovice area. At an elevation of 1,120 m, the statue of Radegast stands exactly halfway along the route from Pustevny to Radhošť; it can be reached from Pustevny via a wide, blue-marked path.
Nature
About 80 % of the Trojanovice area has been part of the Beskydy Protected Landscape Area since 1973. On the northern slope of Radhošť lies the Radhošť National Nature Reserve, at an elevation of 660 to 1,129 m and covering 145 ha. It includes extensive forest stands characteristic of the summit areas of the Moravian-Silesian Beskids.
The Noříčí Nature Reserve protects forest stands on rocky slopes, with a diverse, near-natural composition of tree species and trees approximately 150 years old.
Culture and History
The Chapel of Saints Cyril and Methodius on Radhošť was built between 1896 and 1898. It was consecrated and opened to the public on 11 September 1898. Pilgrimages in honour of Cyril and Methodius have been held on Radhošť since the 1960s. They take place on 5 and 6 July and are attended by several thousand people.
Trojanovice developed from the beginning of the 16th century through the long-term colonisation by shepherds and Pasekáři. This gave rise to local myths, stories and legends about Radhošť and the mythical figure of Radegast.
The Strnadel Brothers and Jan Knebl Memorial provides a brief overview of the history of Trojanovice and the way people lived in the past. The memorial features a historical costume, two sculptures by Jan Knebl – a bust of the writer Bohumír Četyna and an allegory of the economic crisis – as well as a Wallachian nativity scene by Josef Knězek from 1930. A festival celebrating the Descent of the Holy Spirit takes place every year at the Lurdská Chapel in Horečky.
The Libušín dining house at Pustevny was built between 1897 and 1899. It is the work of the architect Dušan Samo Jurkovič, who was inspired by traditional Wallachian log-house architecture. Maměnka is one of the folk-style wooden buildings forming part of the Pustevny National Cultural Monument and was created by Dušan Jurkovič between 1897 and 1899.
