Blatná

Blatná is a friendly little town with pleasant streets and cozy shops.


The small city of Blatná was already mentioned in documents in the 13th century. The city originates in a reinforced fortification around which developed a town. The fortification later grew out to be a castle.

The city is also known as the “rose city”. This is because of the old and strong tradition of cultivating roses. In the summer you can see and smell the beautiful flowers everywhere in and around the city.



The most prominent part of the town is the Castle Blatná. The castle stands on the shore of the river the Lomnice. Originally the castle was surrounded by water but in the 19th century it was rebuild in the Gothic style and the castle-moat disappeared.
