About location

Tucked into the wooded valley where the Nedvědička meets the Svratka, Nedvědice is a place whose character is shaped by the enclosing hills of the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands. This small market town in South Moravia lies beneath Pernštejn Castle, a major Gothic fortress established in the 13th century and long associated with the Lords of Pernštejn. Its compact centre gathers homes and local services along streets leading toward the river valley. Pernštejn, notable for its extensive defences and later Renaissance alterations, makes Nedvědice an enduring stop for travellers exploring the Svratka valley. Forested slopes and the settled valley floor give the town a distinctly close-knit scale.

City Nedvedice

Few towns in South Moravia have a history as closely tied to Pernštejn Castle as Nedvědice. Set in the Svratka River valley, at the meeting of the Svratka and Nedvědička, the settlement lies beneath wooded highlands on the historic Moravia–Bohemia borderland. Pernštejn Castle rises above the town: established in the 13th century and enlarged over later centuries, it was the seat of the Lords of Pernštejn. Its Gothic core and Renaissance additions make it one of Czechia’s best-preserved medieval fortresses. Nedvědice is also a useful starting point for walks through the river valley and surrounding uplands.

Region South Moravian Region

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.

Czechia
Country Czechia

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.
