Ivancice: Budkovice: Modelářské letiště Czech Heaven
Modelářské letiště Czech Heaven combines a purpose-built model-aircraft field with open farmland in a way that reflects its rural South Moravian setting. The site lies near Ivančice, a small town west of Brno where broad arable fields and low wooded horizons shape the surrounding countryside. Ivančice stands on the Jihlava River, within the wider Dyje river basin. Its best-known cultural connection is Alfons Mucha, the Art Nouveau artist born here in 1860; the town has a memorial devoted to his life and work. Czech Heaven brings a specialist recreational use to this agricultural setting, with a paved operating area, grass margins, safety fencing and covered facilities. It is intended for model aviation rather than conventional public air traffic.

Built around the confluence of the Jihlava, Oslava and Rokytná rivers, Ivančice grew into a historic town in South Moravia. Its past is linked to medieval silver mining, which helped it gain the status of a royal town in the 13th century. The compact centre is anchored by Palackého Square and the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. Ivančice is also the birthplace of Art Nouveau artist Alfons Mucha, born here in 1860; the town commemorates him in an exhibition at the Old Town Hall. River valleys and wooded slopes place it in the wider landscape between Brno and the Moravian interior.

South Moravian Region has acted as a cultural crossroads within the Czech lands since the Middle Ages. Brno, Czechia’s second-largest city, is its urban centre, with Špilberk Castle recalling its long strategic role. The region extends across the warm lowlands of the Morava and Dyje rivers, where vineyards shape the countryside around Mikulov and Znojmo. To the north, the Moravian Karst is known for its limestone caves and the Macocha Abyss. The Lednice–Valtice Cultural Landscape, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, combines formal estates, follies and parkland near the Austrian border.

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.
