Catching the Rožmberk pond
The catch program is traditional:
- fishermen's craft of catching in practice
- fish specialties from a wide gastronomic offer, Třeboňská baštýřek steaks
- rich gastronomy of all kinds
- sale of live fish from the catch
- A program for children's visitors is again planned under the Rožmberk pond dam, the possibility of catching fish from the fish tank, a fishing museum, demonstrations of fishing tools and fishing techniques.
Parking will be provided. As in previous years, there are plans to reserve space for caravans.
Notice: There is a strict ban on the use of drones during the catches. (The ban on flying drones, except for exceptions with special permission, applies to the entire area of the MPA.)
Rozmberk Pond:
Also known as the Czech Sea, it is the largest preserved pond in the Czech Republic. The Rožmberk pond is located 2 km north of the town of Třeboň. Its construction culminated the golden age of pond-making in the Czech lands at the end of the 16th century. Rožmberk Pond is actually a dam over the Lužnice River. The original natural flow of the Lužnice River continues below the main outlet of the pond.
The Rožmberk Pond, the largest in the Czech Republic, was completed in 1590 under the direction of Jakub Krčín, who also created the New River as a protection against floods from the Lužnice. The work is the pinnacle of Renaissance pond-making, with a dam over 2 km long and elaborate technical features such as the main outlet, the Adolfka outlet and the unique small hydroelectric power station from 1922. The Rožmberk bastion with its Renaissance sgraffito plasterwork commemorates the history of the site, as does the stone monument to the poacher at the Samice outlet. A nature trail with eight information boards leads around the pond.
