Police nad Metuji

Police nad Metují has served as a Benedictine monastic centre in northeastern Bohemia since the 13th century. The town lies on the Metuje River beneath the sandstone escarpments of the Broumovské stěny, within the Broumovsko Protected Landscape Area. Its core is shaped by the former Benedictine monastery and the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, a major Baroque ensemble linked to the long presence of Břevnov Abbey in this borderland. Trails from town lead into the wooded rock country of the Broumov Highlands, while the small centre retains the scale of a historic regional town rather than a resort.
