The Jarcovská kula
The Jarcovská kula is a rock formation rising on the left bank of the Vsetínská Bečva River, southwards near the village of Jarcová. This village is located south of the town of Valašské Meziříčí. Jarcovská kula is a part of the Vsetín Hills. It is an eight-metre high independent rock tower. A part of this rock has been mined. Jarcovská kula is made of coarse-grained sandstone and fine-grained siltstone. According to the stories of the inhabitants of the surrounding villages, this rock was created by the devil. In 1999, this unique rock formation was declared a natural monument under the name Jarcovská kula and its area is 0.10 hectares. The area around the natural monument is mostly spruce forest.

Monument to Prince Sámo
Prince Sámo created the country of Moravia as early as the beginning of the seventh century AD (one thousand four hundred years ago). At the beginning of the seventh century, Prince Sámo united the Slavic family settlements and the Slavic tribes into a territory bounded on the east by the Váh River, on the south by the rivers Danube, Morava and especially the Dyje, on the west by the highlands, nowadays the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands, and on the north by the Oder River. This land, united by Prince Sámo, was named the land of the Danube Slavs, later Moravia. Today, Moravia is slightly smaller, at that time it extended to the Váh River to today’s Slovakia and Prince Sámo is rightly a great historical figure in Slovak history. The rest is still the same land, our Moravia. The statue of Prince Sámo was erected in the beautiful surroundings of the Jarcov Hills at the crossroads of hiking trails.

Church of St. Anne
he most important historical architectural monument of Rajnochovice is the local church, which is closely related to the foundation of Rajnochovice. On the site of today’s cemetery (to the left of the current church) there was a wooden church of St. Anne from the 12th century. The church gradually decayed under the increasing number of visitors, so the parish priest asked for help in Olomouc. Olomouc Cardinal Wolfgang of Schrattenbach decided to build a spacious church of the Nativity of St. Mary and St. Anne next to the wooden church, designed by the Italian architect G. P. Tencal. The temple was built between 1711 and 1716, and in 1717 it received its bells. After the sons of Nicholas (the founder of the village, see history) settled near the church in 1721, one of them became the bell-ringer.
The church is an architectural gem of the Baroque period. It is also called the “cathedral of Wallachia” because of its dimensions (ground plan 38 x 12 m). A wide stone staircase leads to the entrance of the church. There is a stone coat of arms of Cardinal Schrattenbach and a sundial above the entrance, with statues of St. John of Nepomuk and St. John Sarkander on the sides. There is also a stone pieta in front of the church (seated Mary with Christ on her lap) with the year 1815 and a stone cross from 1737.
The church itself has a vaulted ceiling, 22 windows with lunettes on the sides. In fine weather, the sun’s rays create admirable illumination. On the main altar is a wooden sculpture of St. Anne with the Virgin Mary and the baby Jesus. It probably comes from the original wooden church. Around the sculpture is a decorative wooden carving. There is a painting of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary behind the main altar. In 1930, a new organ was installed in the original baroque organ case from 1720, which is one of the oldest in Moravia. The church has excellent acoustics.
At the same time as the church, the archbishop had a small mansion built for occasional stays. In 1727 a parish was established here with the right to keep registers of births, marriages and deaths. The parish building is currently the home of the Youth Centre of the Archdiocese of Olomouc – “The Port”. Young people have the opportunity to spend their free days together, play sports, attend lectures, spiritual renewal, etc. A similar purpose is served by the recreational facility in Košov – “Archa”. The centre has conditions for year-round accommodation.
