Březová is a municipality and village in Uherské Hradiště District in the Zlín Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 1,000 inhabitants.

Sights

Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius

The main landmark of Březová is the Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius. Initially, there was a small chapel first mentioned in 1662. In 1747, a little church replaced the chapel. The contemporary church was constructed in 1865.[5]

On 1576 a doctor Tomáš Jordán of Klausenburk mentioned Březová's spring in his medical book about healing water. The spring is considered to be healing and is generally known under the name of Kyselka. The area with the spring is a tourist destination.[5]

A 13 metres (43 ft)-high wooden observation tower is located in the western part of Březová. It was built together with five other identical towers in 2011.[6]

Notable people

  • Leoš Janáček (1854–1928), composer; visited Březová for several times to be inspired here by a variety of regional folk songs
