Geography

Horní Břečkov is located about 11 km (7 mi) northwest of Znojmo and 61 km (38 mi) southwest of Brno. It borders Austria to the south and is adjacent to the Austrian town of Hardegg.

Horní Břečkov lies in the Jevišovice Uplands. The highest point is the hill Větrník at 510 m (1,670 ft) above sea level. The western and southern municipal border is formed by the Thaya River. Most of the territory lies in the Podyjí National Park.

History

The first written mention of Horní Břečkov is in a deed of King John of Bohemia from 1323.[2]

Allocated to newly established Czechoslovakia in 1919, Horní Břečkov was annexed by Nazi Germany upon the 1938 Munich Agreement and incorporated into Reichsgau Niederdonau. After World War II, it was returned to Czechoslovakia and the German-speaking population was expelled.

Sights

The landmark of Horní Břečkov is the Church of Saint Clemens. A stone with carved year 1198 indicates that this is one of the oldest churches in the region.[2] The church has a late Gothic core, but it was completely rebuilt in the Renaissance style in the 16th century and baroque reconstructed in 1748 and 1831.[3]
