Swimming in the pool, tennis and nature by the Luční pond dam offer different themes for a stay in Turovec. There are also historic landmarks with very different features. If you are looking for a holiday apartment in Turovec, you can first decide whether water and exercise, the distinctive nature of the natural monument or village history should shape your stay.
Water and sport as separate priorities
Swimming is possible in the pool in Turovec. The multi-purpose sports complex offers tennis and other sporting activities. This gives you a choice between swimming and exercise as separate priorities. If you are looking for a specific sport, tennis is a clear option; the other activities leave room for further interests. When planning your day, you can decide which priority to give precedence to, rather than treating the activities on offer as a set programme. Swimming in the pool and sport at the complex appeal to different interests and can be considered separately when choosing where to stay.
Luční: Natural monument by the pond dam
The Luční National Natural Monument lies on the dam of Luční Pond, in the upper pond system southwest of Turovec. It is protected because of the unique occurrence of numerous significant thermophilic mushroom species, especially boletes. These grow in symbiosis with the trees on the pond dam. The reason for its protection thus links the special mushroom species with their relationship to the trees on the dam. This relationship is central to the area’s natural features: Luční is not just a protected landscape site, but also a specific ecological relationship. The oldest trees on the dam are oak trees approximately 300 years old. The dam, trees and mushrooms give the natural monument a clearly defined character, distinct from the recreational activities by the water and at the sports complex.
Village landmarks and architectural history
The landmarks in the municipality of Turovec include Kepkův dub, which is over 400 years old. The road bridge in Turovec is a massive, single-arch stone structure built partly of bricks. Its description combines two features: its single-arch form and its stone construction with brick elements. The Chapel of Saint John of Nepomuk stands in the village square and dates from 1803. The tree, bridge and chapel offer different points of connection to the village’s history: the great age of a tree, the construction of a road bridge and a chapel with a precise date. The age figures refer to different trees: Kepkův dub is over 400 years old, while the oldest oaks on the Luční dam are approximately 300 years old. This keeps the municipality’s landmark and the trees on the pond dam clearly distinct.
