Holašovice - a traditional village in the so-called South Bohemian folk Baroque style. This South Bohemian village, first established in the 13th century, is regarded as the best example of folk Baroque architecture in the region. Some 20 buildings in total stand grouped around a pond in the middle of the village green, many with decorated Baroque gables and concealing large gardens. In the 19th century the smithy was given its current appearance, and on the north side the Baroque Chapel of St John of Nepomuk was added in 1755. A stone cross was added in front of the chapel in 1935. Holašovice isn2t just a unique example of well-preserved and historically valuable town planning, but a village with a living rural tradition, as we know it from the most famous Czech opera, ‘The Bartered Bride2.
