Nahošovice can be explored through a variety of themes: a chapel dedicated to the Holy Trinity, archaeological traces, and the Dřevohostický les Natura 2000 site on the western edge of the municipality. Together, they offer an overview of the village in which architectural history, finds and a protected natural area each provide a distinct focus. When planning your trip, it is worth keeping these perspectives separate: the chapel is a building with a specific year of construction, the hillocks and the former fortress belong to the area’s archaeological history, and the protected site is located on the municipality’s western edge.

The Chapel and Local History

The chapel dedicated to the Holy Trinity was built in 1874 on the site of an earlier wooden bell tower. This links a clearly dated building with an older landmark. The year refers to the construction of the chapel, while the dedication indicates its religious connection. This relationship offers a tangible insight into local history: the chapel dates from after the wooden bell tower, but stands in the same place. For those interested in architectural history, it provides a specific point of reference that brings together the dedication, construction year and location.

Archaeological Traces at Zajíček and the Fortress

The isolated hillock near Zajíček is considered the largest of the local hillocks. Excavations uncovered pottery sherds, a flint knife and stone axes. The size comparison ranks the hillock among those in the area, while the finds identify specific materials and objects. These provide two distinct archaeological points of reference: the hillock’s relative size and the results of the excavation. Another trace is the former fortress of Nahošovice, dating from the 14th century. Only a small mound measuring approximately 6.5 × 3 metres remains; it stands around 1.5 metres above the bottom of the moat. These measurements describe the surviving mound, not the size of the former fortress. The fortress stood in the northeastern part of the settlement, by the village centre. Here, in addition to the date, the location and dimensions of the surviving remains are particularly significant.

Natural Landscape on the Municipality’s Western Edge

The Dřevohostický les Natura 2000 site extends into the western edge of the Nahošovice municipal area in two sections. It complements the area’s architectural and archaeological history with a distinct natural feature located at the edge of the municipality. This distinction can help you choose a focus: the chapel and archaeological traces represent local history, while the Natura 2000 site represents the natural landscape on the western edge.

Planning a Visit to Farma Nahošovice

A visit to Farma Nahošovice is possible by prior telephone arrangement. If you would like to include it in your travel plans, arrange your visit by phone in advance rather than treating it as an unannounced stop. This ensures that making the necessary arrangements is part of your planning from the outset.

The historical points of reference each have a different focus: for the chapel, it is the dedication and construction year; at Zajíček, the hillock and its finds; and for the former fortress, the dimensions and location of the surviving mound. These distinctions can help you choose your own focus in Nahošovice, whether architectural history or archaeology.
