Velesin

The Malše River defines the setting of Velešín — its wooded valley borders the town and sets the built-up streets on higher ground above the water. This South Bohemian town lies between České Budějovice and the Austrian border, in a region of rolling farmland, forests and small settlements. The medieval ruins of Velešín Castle occupy a rocky spur over the Malše, recalling the strategic importance of this river corridor. In the centre, the Church of St. Wenceslas and the town’s traditional square provide a quieter counterpoint to the surrounding countryside.

South Bohemian Region occupies a broad southern stretch of Bohemia in Czechia, reaching from the Šumava Mountains near Austria to the lowlands around České Budějovice. The Vltava flows north through this region, while the Třeboň area is renowned for its centuries-old network of fishponds and carp farming. Český Krumlov, set in a bend of the Vltava, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its historic centre and castle complex. The regional capital, České Budějovice, is also home to the Budweiser Budvar brewery. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of South Bohemia.

The terrain of Czechia ranges from fertile lowlands in southern Moravia to mountain ridges along the northern frontier, giving this Central European country a distinctly varied geography. The Vltava runs through Prague before joining the Elbe, while the Krkonoše form part of the border with Poland and include Sněžka, Czechia’s highest mountain. Prague’s historic centre, with Prague Castle and Charles Bridge, reflects the city’s long role as a political and cultural centre. Beyond the capital, Bohemia is known for spa towns and brewing, and Moravia for wine-growing traditions.
