Kamenné Zboží combines a local history dating back to its first written mention in 1495 with a chapel of Baroque origins and traditional festival dates. At the southern edge lies a pond divided into three parts. This gives visitors different options for their stay: architecture and memorial sites, local festival traditions, or routes that also extend into the area from nearby Nymburk. For planning purposes, check fixed dates, specific routes and current timetables separately.

Chapel and Local History

The chapel has stood here since the 18th century and was originally Baroque. It was structurally altered towards the end of the 19th century. It is built of masonry, has a square floor plan, a tented roof and a tower-like bell tower. The floor plan describes the layout as seen from above, while the roof shape and bell tower are additional architectural features. Its original style and later alteration can be distinguished as two phases in its building history.

Directly beside the chapel is a memorial to those who fell in the First and Second World Wars. There is a cross in front of house No. 50. The chapel, the memorial and the cross offer different points of connection with local history, from architectural form to commemorative markers.

Traditions and Dates

Posvícení takes place on 1 November and is a traditional recurring festival. The traditional pilgrimage is associated with the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul on 29 June. The two traditions are linked to different calendar dates. If you are planning to travel specifically for one of these occasions, check in advance whether it is taking place and what the programme is.

Another possible reason to visit is the fishing competitions organized several times a year by the local Blace fishing club. Check in advance whether visitors may participate. This distinguishes a planned competition from the traditional festival dates: in addition to the timing, the opportunity to participate is also important here.

Pond, Routes and Getting There

A pond divided into three parts lies at the southern edge of Kamenné Zboží. As a landscape feature, it complements the town’s architectural and festival history with a different perspective. Hiking and cycling routes from nearby Nymburk also extend into the Kamenné Zboží area. If you are planning a trip, check the exact route in advance.

The local infrastructure includes a double-track, electrified railway line that is part of the national railway network. For a specific train journey, check the current timetables for your travel date. The route and the timetable are separate planning steps: for a hike or cycle ride, the route matters; for a train journey, it is the service available on your chosen date.

Stay and Accommodation

When planning an overnight stay, it helps to first match the reason for your trip to the dates. A festival visit depends on the dates given and whether the event is taking place, a tour on its specific route, and a train journey on the timetable for the relevant day. Then check which hotel options are available for your dates.
