Jarov U Blovic can be explored through a range of interests: school history, religious landmarks, cycling and landscape. When looking for a holiday apartment, you can therefore first consider which focus you would like to shape your stay. The former school building combines a precisely dated historical connection with a sports room for table tennis; Cycle Route No. 2148 and the named hills provide other, clearly distinct reference points.

School History and Sports Room

The school building in Jarov was built in autumn 1875 as a single-class school. “Single-class” describes a school with one class; this detail brings the school system of the time into focus and adds a specific historical context to the year of construction. The former school building has a sports room used for table tennis. The building’s former educational function and its present-day use for table tennis thus sit side by side. If table tennis is an important part of your travel plans, check the arrangements in advance.

Chapel, Statue and Crosses

The Chapel of the Virgin Mary is located in Jarov. A statue of Saint Joseph stands at a crossroads south of Jarov; the Saint Joseph Cross stands beside the road towards Kokořov. There is a cross in the eastern part of Jarov. The chapel, statue and crosses differ in form, while their location details provide distinct points of reference. For travellers interested in cultural history, these religious landmarks add another perspective on Jarov to the history of the school building.

Cycle Route and Landscape

Cycle Route No. 2148 passes through all of Jarov. For anyone including cycling in their travel plans, it provides a clear geographical reference: the route runs through the entire village. The 582 m-high Dus is accessible on foot northeast of Jarov; the 589 m-high Chroustov lies west of Jarov. The hills differ in height by just seven metres. Their different locations are therefore at least as important as the small difference in elevation when navigating between them; Dus is also accessible on foot. Two ponds are also located in Jarov, adding another point of reference to the landscape.

Weighing Your Interests When Looking for Accommodation

When looking for a holiday apartment, you can assess Jarov according to your main travel interest. The cycle route is a specific reference point if cycling is a priority. The school building, chapel, statue and crosses offer a different focus, while the differently located hills and the two ponds are relevant for finding your way around the landscape. When comparing Dus and Chroustov, their locations and nearly identical heights matter; Dus is also accessible on foot.
