Liberation Memorial Velký Týnec
In 1921 a large stone cairn was built above Velký Týnec – the Liberation Monument. It is located in the area where once there was a fortified settlement. The building, conceived as the Liberation Monument, was designed by a local native, architect František Kolář. Even the President of the Czechoslovak Republic, T. G. Masaryk, attended the unveiling ceremony on 18 September 1921. This event is commemorated by a nearby memorial stone. On the front side of the cairn is the inscription 1620-VSTALŤ JEST-NÁROD OSVOBOZENÝ-1918. A memorial plaque commemorating the death of 31 men from Tyniec who died at the front during World War I, including one of the twenty citizens who joined the Czechoslovak foreign legions, was placed in the cairn. Later, a memorial plaque to the victims of World War II was added. The imposing cairn stands on Hradisko Hill 299 m above sea level, a wooden cross stands a short distance away, there is a fireplace with seating and benches are placed around it. It is a beautiful viewpoint, in good weather you can enjoy a beautiful view not only of the village itself, but also of Olomouc.

The Kingdom Nature Reserve
The Kingdom Nature Reserve is located about 8 km southeast of Olomouc between the villages of Dub nad Moravou, Majetín, Grygov and Charváty. The whole area is interwoven with a network of paths that directly encourages long walks. It is a very species diverse floodplain forest in the vast floodplain of the Morava River. The whole area is characterised by rich flora and fauna. In the spring season, you will find an anemone, hollow-leaved wood anemone, yellow woodruff or primrose in the herbaceous floor. Later on, bear garlic dominates. Among the critically endangered amphibians, there are, for example, the common mockingbird, the mountain mockingbird and the green sundew. Over 63 species of birds nest here. An interesting sight is the monumental tree “Oak King”, which grows near the railway line and is 460 years old.

Basilica minor of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary
The Basilica on Svatý Kopeček is an unmissable dominant feature of the whole surroundings of Olomouc. The Church of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary on Svatý Kopeček has been the destination of thousands of pilgrims for centuries, and even today it is one of the most famous and most visited pilgrimage sites in the Czech Republic. According to the legend, the pilgrimage site was founded by Jan Andrýsek, a townsman and wine merchant from Olomouc, by building a chapel, which the Virgin Mary requested in a dream. The main pilgrimage takes place on the Feast of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary (31 May), on the Sunday after the Feast of the Assumption (15 August) and on the following Monday and Tuesday and also on the last Sunday in October.
The church was built by the Premonstratensians in the 17th and 18th centuries on the site of a chapel destroyed by the Swedes. The orientation of the temple is unique, as the main axis does not run from east to west, but the temple faces the mother monastery Hradisko. The priest who blessed the faithful from the altar is said to have blessed the monastery as well when the doors were open. In 1995, Pope John Paul II elevated the church to the status of Basilica Minor. This important place of pilgrimage has undergone a long-term reconstruction, the second stage of which was completed in 2021. Thanks to the reconstruction, this Baroque jewel is now in perfect condition and the previously closed areas are now open to visitors. For example, a new tour circuit that takes visitors to the choir, where they can enjoy a unique view of the cathedral, also takes them through the previously inaccessible representative halls. Visitors can also visit the Svatý Kopeček Museum, which displays monstrances, reliquaries, mass vestments and an exhibition of pilgrimage. The museum tour has twenty stops with descriptions and QR codes, with the first stop located outside the basilica.
