The centre of an ethnographically interesting region – Chodsko, obtained municipal rights in 1262 from King Přemysl Otakar II. One of few municipal castles in the Czech Republic has preserved here from the Middle Ages. Today the castle of Chodsko offers significant ethnographical collections. A remarkable dominant of the town is a cylinder leaning tower of a rectory church. The square is elongated and surrounded by rows of old burghers´ houses with Baroque and Classicist facades. On the square the Chodsko festivities take place every year. They reflect the local folklore specialities. Chodsko is one of few regions in Bohemia, where the tradition has been preserved.
