Welcome to the Town of
Bechyne

Southern Bohemia Region of Czech Republic

(approx. 96 kilometers from Prague)


The town of Bechyne is situated in the picturesque countryside over the Luznice river. In the past it belonged to the oldest administrative centres and included a considerable part of Southern Bohemia with the residence of the archdeanconry as early as at the beginning of the Middle Ages. The Bechyne owner's coat-of-arms reminds you of the old symbol of South Bohemia - cinquefoil rose, the crest of Petr Vok - the last Rosenberg regent.

The most valuable architectural sights are the Bechyne castle complex and the late Gothic minster with its magnificent diamond vault. For more than two hundred years the town has been renowned for spa treatment, the production of traditional South-Bohemian ceramics and the oldest Czech ceramic school in this country.

Another notable sight is "The Bechyne rainbow" - the ferroconcrete bridge spanned over the deep valley of the Luznice river. It is 50 meters high and was completed in 1928.

Every year the town is a destination for a lot of tourists and outstanding international artists all over the world. It has become a centre of the South-Bohemian Musical Festival with the international participation of famous musicians. The South-Bohemian Art Gallery of Mikolas Ales houses the works of international ceramics symposiums held in Bechyne. The artefacts are located in the former castle brewery. Another unique sight is the Firemen's Museum.
