About location

Kotvrdovice has served as an agricultural settlement near the Moravian Karst since the Middle Ages. First documented in 1347, the municipality lies on the rolling uplands of the Drahanská vrchovina, north-east of Brno, where fields and small wooded strips shape the countryside. Letiště Tři sudy Kotvrdovice is a grass airfield set within this open farmland, linking the village with recreational aviation. Its Czech name, meaning “Three Barrels,” gives the site a distinctly local identity. Kotvrdovice remains a compact rural community on the edge of the karst region. Nearby, the Moravian Karst is known for its extensive cave systems and limestone formations, among South Moravia’s defining natural features.

The village lies in the Blansko District, east of the better-known cave country around the Punkva River, where water has cut underground passages through Devonian limestone. Kotvrdovice remains a settled rural community rather than a resort, providing a sense of the inhabited side of this protected landscape.
