Why this destination

Luhačovice – a spa town with a tradition stretching back to the 7th century

The town covers 33 km². In the historic centre you’ll find buildings from many different eras. The first written mention of Luhačovice dates back to 1412. Over the centuries, prominent landowners like the Serényi family left their mark here.

In the 18th century a château was built, the seat of the noble family. In the 19th and 20th centuries the town grew thanks to the spa boom and the railway, which drew visitors from across the country.

Jurkovič’s architecture

The spa was put on the map by architect Dušan Jurkovič, whose colorful houses are decorated with folk motifs and half-timbering. This gave the whole town its one-of-a-kind fairy-tale look.

The buildings around the square resemble festive Wallachian timber cottages. You won’t find anything like it anywhere else in the Czech Republic.
