ALPS Electric Czech is located in a charming Moravian
village Sebranice, close to town
Boskovice. It's situated about 4 hours by car South East of
Prague, 4 hours
North of Vienna and about 40 minutes North of
Brno. It's near the
Moravian
Karst with its characteristic limestone caves and underground rivers. The
ruined gothic castle of “Velen” and the surrounding afforested hills make a
romantic back - drop to the town. The later Chateau and its outbuildings, the
home of Count Mensdorff -Pouilly, are very interesting : the Chateau is packed
with antiques and curios .The Family are related to the English Royal Family ,
The Saxe- Coburg - Windsors ,through Queen Victoria ,and were economic and
military advisors to the House of Habsberg. They were especially important at
the beginning of the First World War, when one of the key global politicians
in 1914 was Count A. Mensdorff , the Habsburg Ambassador to The Court Of Saint
James’s (England.) To return to Boskovice ;- please enter the Square from the
top or east end. The narrow passage curves to suddenly reveal the beautiful
cobbled square. The slope adds to the perspective. The Town Hall looks down to
confront the elegant church of St. James at the foot. Communista blockbusters
loose out to the beauty of Moravian - Habsburg style buildings. Look for the
tasteful renovations, especially at the foot of the square, on the left. In
behind this is mysterious angular Synagogue and the jumble of tiny streets
which form the ghetto.
The legendary foundation of Boskovice. Apparently a nobleman got lost in
the forest. A man called Velen helped the nobleman and lent him his comb. Velen was granted the fiefdom of
this area and his coat of arms was a seven toothed comb that still is the
crest of Boskovice today. Legend has it that as the builder of the now ruined
castle, Velen was inspecting his construction site. Whilst walking he stubbed
his toe on the door step. This became the name of the castle and its
subservient town below. Totally paradoxically his modern descendants disregard
his command and never wear shoes at home. Please remove your shoes in the hall!
For this size Boskovice has an amazing number and diversity of pubs and
hotels. - Hence the need for this guide. The natives are friendly! Mugging and
violence are unknown and the waiters and waitresses invariably patient,
courteous and honest. Foreign visitors eccentricities are tolerated! The
position of the castle overlooking the town and the commanding and unusually
shaped tower of the Town Hall makes navigation easy. The land slopes up from
the valley of Belá in the East (or the road to Prostejov) to the Town Hall
than gradually down to the hospital, railway and bus stations on the road to
Brno. This town is relatively unspoiled by industry, service industries
predominating. The fact that Boskovice is a centre of academic excellence
should make your stay easier - many pupils will wish to practice their English
on you.
