Stráž combines the calm scale of a market town with a borderland setting in a way that reflects its position in the foothills of the Český les, close to the German frontier. The Úhlavka River runs through the settlement, linking its built-up centre to the gently rolling countryside of western Bohemia. In Tachov District, within the Plzeň Region, Stráž is officially a městys—the Czech term for a market town—rather than a large urban centre. This designation reflects the place’s enduring local role and its distinctly small-town rhythm. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across the Plzeň Region.
