Article Tour of Trutnov

You can start your tour of Trutnov directly opposite one of the city's landmarks – the Krakonoš brewery. There is a large car park and the city center is just a short walk away.

Barvířská Street will take you to an important city tourist crossroads to the sculptural group of St. Jan Nepomucký.

From the sculptural group along Horská Street still up until you reach the most beautiful place in Trutnov – Krakonoš Square

In addition to the dominant town hall with a huge dragon, in the middle of the square you will also find the Krakonoš Fountain, a statue of Emperor Joseph II. and the Holy Trinity Column

Picturesque streets with houses with arcades run out of Krakonoš Square. We will go, for example, Jihoslovanská Stre­et

We come to Slovanské náměstí, where the brutalist town hall building is located. Typical beautification of the historic center by communist comrades.

We return to the historic city center via Bulharská Street

We turn into the short Kostelní street and in front of us rises another landmark of the city – the Baroque Church of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary with a 63 meter high tower

From the church there is a pretty nice view of the eastern Giant Mountains

Next to it is the Podkrkonoší Museum, where potential visitors can learn something about the history of Trutnov

If you go down in the direction of Malé náměstí you will see that the inner city lies quite high above the river

If you want to extend the trip, you can go to the river Upa, or for a longer walk in the direction of a picturesque city park and further along the nature trail to the hill Šibeník (506m)
