Culture

The Evangelical Tolerance Church in Javorník dates from 1783, has largely retained its original form to this day, and is a protected monument.

The region’s architectural heritage also includes Kopánky, a village conservation area with a valuable ensemble of vernacular buildings.

Trails

The Javořinská educational trail comprises three circular routes of varying lengths and 14 stops. At the Javorník stop, the short route follows a walking loop along the western slope of Hradisko to the Petruchovy mlýny mills.
