Friedberg (Frymburk) offers a range of options for a stay: the museum explores regional history and the changes brought about by the Lipno Reservoir; cycling and inline skating routes, as well as the main beach, offer other attractions. When planning, you can decide whether to focus mainly on culture, exercise or activities by the water.
Regional history and architectural history
The Frymburk Museum is housed in a renovated building at Náměstí 5. It explores life in the region over past centuries and the far-reaching changes brought about by the construction of the Lipno Reservoir. The museum also covers exhibits that disappeared beneath the reservoir's waters.
The permanent exhibition includes prehistoric tools as well as various everyday objects dating from the 13th century to the present day. Early tools are displayed alongside items from different periods of everyday life. Together with the history of the reservoir's construction, this range offers different ways to explore the region's past: from individual objects to the transformation of an entire landscape.
The Church of St. Bartholomew in Frymburk offers a different historical focus. Founded in 1277, it was originally Early Gothic; its present Late Gothic form was completed in 1530. While the museum explores regional history and everyday life over long periods, the church tells the story of a single building's development. If you are interested in culture, you can take these different perspectives into account when choosing your itinerary.
Cycling route and inline skating path
The Jezerní cycling route runs along the lake and leads from Frymburk via Lipno to Přední Výtoň. The section between Frymburk and Lipno is illuminated at night. When planning a cycling trip, both the route through the named places and the lighting on this specific section are relevant; the lighting information does not automatically apply to the entire route.
Another option is the Jezerní inline skating path, which is also suitable for beginners and children. When choosing between the cycling route and the inline skating path, you can weigh up different considerations: the cycling route is defined by its course along the lake and the places it passes, while the suitability of the inline skating path for beginners and children provides a specific point of reference.
Main beach and activities for children
Visitors can play pétanque, beach volleyball and nohejbal at Frymburk's main beach. Boats, pedal boats, paddleboards and sailboats are also available for hire there. Rental availability may vary by season. If you are planning to rent equipment, it is best to check in advance whether it will be available during your travel dates.
There are other specific options for a stay with children: the Kubíkova educational trail in Frymburk Park includes a mini zoo. The Médi Kubíka children's park has an 85-metre-long water slide. Together with the Jezerní inline skating path's suitability for children, these offer a choice between exercise on the path, a mini zoo and a water-based attraction. Which option suits your stay depends on what you would like to focus on.
