Planice

Planice lies in a shallow valley in the Šumava foothills, where low wooded ridges and cultivated fields form the transition to the mountain country farther south. This small town in the Klatovy District retains the measured scale of a traditional rural centre, with daily life concentrated around its compact built-up area and surrounding farmland. Planice is the birthplace of František Křižík, the Czech electrical engineer and inventor associated with the early electrification of the Czech lands. That connection gives the town a distinct place in the country’s technical history. Find related webcams across the Plzeň Region to build a fuller picture of Planice and the Šumava foothills.
