Milenov offers several distinct points of interest for a trip: a named cycling route, historical traces in the village and events at a small reservoir. The topics range from a route with a stated length to an event whose dates vary. If you are looking for a holiday apartment in Milenov, you can first consider what you would like to focus on during your stay. The information below covers the landscape, cycling route, local history and events, and highlights the different planning considerations for each.

Location in the Moravian Gate

Milenov extends along the Milenovec stream, lies at the foot of Mount Uhřínov and is situated in the natural landscape of the Moravian Gate. This brings together a connection to a body of water, a named mountain and a regional landscape. The information places Milenov on different spatial levels: along the stream, at the foot of Uhřínov and within the Moravian Gate.

Cycling Route 6060

Cycling Route 6060 is 7.0 kilometres long and runs from Milenov via Drahotuše to Hranice. Both the length and the sequence of the named places are useful details for planning. If you are considering Milenov primarily as a starting point for a cycling trip, you can take this clearly defined route into account. The distance indicates the length of the route; you can plan the time needed to suit your travel plans. Unlike the cultural and historical details, the cycling route is a route-focused option with a specific length and a named itinerary.

Village history across several periods

Milenov was first mentioned in 1353. A wooden bell tower stood in the village until 1867. The chapel on the village square was built between 1897 and 1902 and was recently reconstructed. A sandstone monument was erected in memory of the fallen residents and bears their names. These dates mark different milestones: the first mention of the village, the end of the bell tower and the construction period of the chapel; its reconstruction adds a more recent change to the building’s history. The chapel and the monument have different purposes: the chapel is a religious building, while the monument commemorates fallen residents by recording their names. The village’s history thus encompasses different forms of remembrance and several specific dates.

Events at the reservoir

“Milenovské cákání” adds an event whose date varies. Under this name, the municipality organises events at the small reservoir above the village; the dates vary from year to year. If this programme is important to your trip, check the current event dates before setting your travel dates. This planning differs from that for the cycling route and historical milestones: attending the event depends on choosing the right date, while the route and village history offer separate, independent points of interest. You can therefore plan your trip around whether the cycling route, the village’s history or an event particularly interests you.
