Broumov occupies the Broumov Basin on the Stěnava River in northeastern Bohemia, close to Czechia’s border with Poland. The town is anchored by Broumov Monastery, a Benedictine complex whose present Baroque form is associated with the Dientzenhofer family of architects. Its monastery church and the series of Baroque churches scattered through the surrounding countryside attest to the area’s long religious tradition. Beyond the centre, the protected Broumovsko landscape leads toward the sandstone ridges and rock formations of the Broumov Walls.
