Tour of Medlov with the Owner

Hotel Medlov, Fryšava pod Žákovou horou

from 74 Kč · ≈ 3 €

In 2026, guided tours of Hotel Medlov with owner Jan Piskoř continue — more than 2,000 visitors took part in 2024 and 2025. The programme consists of two parts, each lasting 45 minutes, including areas not normally open to the public.

The first part — Functionalist Medlov — focuses on the functionalist building from 1934, designed by architects Pavel Smetana and Alois Wachsman. It is the only surviving structure from their joint work. The stories of this era are tied to the original owners Leoš and Aglaïa Stehlík and the figures in their circle; writer Jan Drda referred to the place in his texts as "Medlov — a paradise newly found".

The second part — Brussels-style Medlov — presents the 1974 building designed by architect Jiří Herzán in the progressive Brussels style that emerged from the Expo 58 era. The interior and exterior are largely preserved in their original state, including artworks and furnishings undergoing gradual restoration. The building still serves its original purpose and is among the rare properties where authenticity has been maintained to this degree.
