Strakonice: airport Strakonice
The Otava River defines the setting of Strakonice — joined here by the Volyňka, it gives this South Bohemian town a compact form amid gently rolling uplands. Strakonice Airport occupies the town’s edge as an open grass airfield with low operational buildings, reflecting the transition from urban streets to broad open land. At the rivers’ confluence stands Strakonice Castle, long associated with the Knights Hospitaller. The town is also closely tied to Czech bagpipe making and bagpipe music, traditions celebrated through its cultural events and local identity.
