In the early 19th century, Šlapanice was primarily an agricultural center that supplied Brno with bread and milk. At that time, there were about eight times fewer inhabitants here than today. Although the actual village was not directly affected by the battle's turmoil, its residents experienced more than enough difficulties during those times. This was also contributed to by the fact that all three armies gradually passed through the town. Let's take a walk in their footsteps.
You could fit South Moravia into Germany fifty times. Still, the region is so diverse that you will encounter different scenery and different experiences at each kilometre of it. Come for a weekend trip. Or for a whole holiday!
