Three specific aspects of a trip to Kladruby U Vlašimi can be planned: the direct bus connection to Prague, trails near Rehabilitační ústav Kladruby, and the dated local history at the village green. They relate to different decisions about travel, walks, and historical interest. When considering the historical dates, it is worth distinguishing between the chapel, the cross, the stone with dates, and the former wooden church at Kladrubská hůra.
Bus connection and accommodation search
Since August 2, 2026, direct bus line 402 has connected the “Kladruby, rehab. ústav” stop with Prague several times a day, including on weekends. This means a trip to the capital can be included as a separate part of your travel plans. Check the timetable before departure, as schedule information may change.
When looking for a holiday apartment, it helps to decide in advance what you want to focus on during your stay: will a trip to Prague be part of it, or would you like to set aside time for local history and a walk? The bus connection and the trails near the institute suit different plans. If you are considering both, check the timetable and route conditions separately.
Trails near Rehabilitační ústav Kladruby
Rehabilitační ústav Kladruby lies near Kladruby in the preserved landscape of Podblanicko, on the edge of the Vlašim Basin. The wheelchair routes of the Klubu českých turistů run through the institute grounds and the surrounding area. This setting makes the natural surroundings a distinct focus alongside the chapel at the village green.
In Kladruby u Vlašimi, the red “Okolo Rehabilitačního ústavu” wheelchair route of the Klubu českých turistů is listed as 4.6 km long. The route can also be used for walks with a stroller. Factor the distance into your plans for the day, and check the current trail conditions and signage before setting out.
The chapel and dated traces at the village green
The chapel dedicated to Saint Wenceslas stands on the village green. It was built in 1895 on the site of an older chapel. The date therefore marks the construction of the chapel; the history of the chapel site goes back further, to the earlier building.
Beside the chapel are a stone bearing the dates 1405–2005 and a cross from 1887. The dates refer to different things: 1887 is the year of the cross, 1895 is the year the chapel was built, while the stone bears the date range 1405–2005. The cross dates from eight years before the chapel. This makes it possible to distinguish the dates at the village green without merging them into a single building history.
The former wooden church at Kostelík
Another piece of local history is associated with Kladrubská hůra, also called Kostelík. A wooden church dedicated to Jan Hus once stood at the foot of the hill. It was demolished in 1627; only the name of the hill remains. These are two distinct places of remembrance: the chapel dedicated to Saint Wenceslas stands on the village green, while the church at the foot of Kladrubská hůra lives on only in local history and in the name of the hill.
