Klenčí Pod Čerchovem: Hotels and Accommodation

History and Townscape

Klenčí pod Čerchovem is home to the Stará pošta, a historic post office building dating from the 18th century. The complex has been protected as an immovable cultural monument since 1958. The Výhledy folklore festival takes place on its grounds every year. The history of the Stará pošta is linked to a trade route that led from Prague via Plzeň and Klenčí onwards to Waldmünchen, Řezno and Regensburg.

The centre of Klenčí pod Čerchovem has been designated a village heritage zone of folk architecture since 1995. Original houses have been preserved on both sides of the streets from the Stará pošta to the church. St. Martin's Church is a Baroque church built between 1737 and 1745.

The religious architectural monuments also include the Lomikarova boží muka, protected Baroque wayside shrines dating from the second half of the 17th century. They are also considered the oldest religious monument in Klenčí pod Čerchovem.

The Baarovo muzeum was established in accordance with the last will of Jindřich Šimon Baar. Its collection documents the life of the old Chods, their folk art, and the literary legacy of Jindřich Šimon Baar.
