Despite the fact that Jilemnice is only a small town not far from the Giant Mountains, it is worth stopping here and seeing the local sights or strengthening after a hike in the Giant Mountains. Here you will find not only a castle with a park, but also nice folk buildings and a picturesque square

Masaryk Square in Jilemnice

It is best to start the tour of Jilemnice on Masaryk Square with a fountain and statues. In one of the corners of the square is a distinctive building of the former savings bank (now the information center)

City Hall in Jilemnice

The dominant feature of Masaryk Square and the symbol of the city is a large town hall with a high tower.

Jilemnice Chateau - Giant Mountains Museum

A green oasis in Jilemnice is the chateau park, in the middle of which stands a picturesque chateau – today the seat of the Krkonoše Museum.
