History


Memorial of the Bible of Kralice
Memorial of the Bible of Kralice

The first written mention of Kralice is from 1379, when a fortress was here.[2]

In the Kralice Fortress a secret printing shop of the Unity of the Brethren was hidden, in which the Bible of Kralice, the first complete translation of the Bible from the original languages into the Czech language, was printed between 1579 and 1593.[3]


Sights


The landmark of the village is the Church of Saint Martin. It is a Gothic church from the 14th century with Renaissance modifications.[4]

Fragments of the local two-storey fortress have been preserved to this day. Remains of walls and cellars have been preserved, which were discovered during an archaeological survey.[5]

Memorial of the Bible of Kralice was built in 1967–1969. The memorial, managed by Moravské zemské muzeum in Brno, contained an exhibition about local archaeological research, the activities of the Brethren printing house, and an exhibition about J. A. Comenius. However, it was closed until further notice due to technical reasons.[6]
