The history of churches and chapels in Rejšice, along with the Vlkava 4–Smilovice fishing water, gives a trip to Smilovice several distinct themes. Rejšice is a district of Smilovice; the fishing water covers 2.5 hectares in the cadastral area of Smilovice. If you are looking for a holiday rental, first decide what matters most: would you mainly like to explore the churches and chapels, or is fishing on your agenda? Then check which location best suits your specific plans.
The Church and Townscape of Rejšice
The Church of St John of Nepomuk in Rejšice was built between 1730 and 1735 and last reconstructed in 1885. The construction period and the last reconstruction mark two different stages: the former dates the building’s construction, while the latter refers to a later structural renovation. Rejšice is also intended to preserve its existing urban structure, with the village square and the church as its dominant building. The church’s history and the planned preservation of the townscape thus come together in a specific building.
Two Chapels, Different Points of Reference
The Chapel of St Giles in the cemetery has foundations dating from the 14th century and is the surviving remnant of the former church of Rejšice. The date refers to the foundations; the chapel can also be understood in relation to its connection with the former church. North of Rejšice, a stone chapel dedicated to St Anne stands on the road to Kosořice. The two buildings offer different points of interest for those curious about cultural history: the foundations and predecessor church are linked in the case of St Giles, while St Anne’s Chapel is defined by its building material and location.
Another Monument: Újezd
A statue of St John of Nepomuk dating from 1728 stands in the village square of Újezd. It was restored in 2014. Here, too, the date of creation and the restoration should be distinguished: 1728 refers to the statue, and 2014 to its restoration. Unlike the church in Rejšice, this is not a church building but a monument in a village square. Its dedication to St John of Nepomuk links the two sites thematically, while their forms and dates differ.
Fishing and Getting Around
The Vlkava 4–Smilovice fishing water covers 2.5 hectares in the cadastral area of Smilovice. This area gives you a specific sense of its size; check the current conditions before fishing. If fishing is the main factor in your holiday rental search, take the accommodation’s location and the fishing water’s conditions into account when planning. The existing network of local roads is also relevant for getting around: it connects nearby settlements and provides access to forest and agricultural land. If you would like to include several interests in one stay, check the specific connections and arrange your plans according to your own priorities.
