Křtomil combines a prehistoric context with small cultural landmarks, recurring traditions and Bahňák Pond. This offers different points of focus when choosing a place to stay: early local history, religious artworks, annual events or sport. Consider whether you would most like to discover Křtomil through its archaeological context, a particular tradition or its local cultural landmarks.

Prehistoric Context

Křtomil lies at the foot of the prehistoric burial ground and settlement of Ochozy. This links the village to a prehistoric context distinct from individual buildings and traditions maintained each year. For travellers interested in history, this archaeological connection adds a focus of its own to the local cultural monuments: the emphasis is on the relationship with the burial ground and settlement, not on a single building.

Buildings and Small Cultural Landmarks

If you are coming from the direction of Bystřice pod Hostýnem, the wayside shrine known as “Boží muka” stands to the right of the main road before Křtomil. It was originally built of wood. The directions help you find it, while its original construction adds a historical detail. A brochure published in 2013 for the Olomoucký kraj village competition mentions a mosaic of Saint Florian on Křtomil’s bell tower.

There is also a stone statue of the Virgin Mary in the village, as well as two stone crosses. These landmarks differ in form, material and subject: alongside the originally wooden wayside shrine are a mosaic, a stone artwork and two crosses. Visitors who consider small religious cultural monuments when choosing a destination will find several different points of interest here.

Traditions and Events

The traditional bear procession “Vodění medvěda” takes place in Křtomil every year; the Easter clattering tradition “Velikonoční klapotání” is also observed annually. The annual calendar also includes the “Pochod kolem obce” walk around the village and a children’s day. These events have different characters: alongside two named customs are a walk and a children’s day. Exact dates vary.

Pond and Sport

A brochure published in 2013 by Olomoucký kraj lists the pond, known locally as “Bahňák,” as a tourist attraction in Křtomil. Alongside the cultural monuments and traditions, the pond is another local point of interest.

Sport is another focus. The sports ground in Křtomil is intended for volleyball, nohejbal, handball, small-sided football, tennis, badminton and ice hockey. These various disciplines set this theme apart from the archaeological history and local traditions, while the list also offers a specific point of reference for travellers who want to include sport in their choice of destination.

Plan Your Journey and Stay

The “Křtomil, náves” bus stop is served by route 941. The timetable is valid from 14 June to 12 December 2026. If you plan to travel by bus, check the timetable again for your travel dates before setting off.

The annual events may influence your preferred travel dates. If a particular event is a deciding factor for you, check its exact date before looking for a holiday apartment for your stay. By contrast, for a trip focused on cultural history, the archaeological connection and local landmarks may be the main points of interest.
