Dukovany, Nuclear power station in Třebíč District, Czech Republic

The municipality encompasses the Dukovany Nuclear Power Station, four reactor units, and the Church of Saint Wenceslaus amid the Jevišovice Uplands terrain at 352 meters elevation.

The settlement's first documentation dates to 1263 under the name Tokovany, later transferred to the Templar Order during the second half of the 13th century.

The Church of Saint Wenceslaus, consecrated in 1279, contains restored 13th-century frescoes and underwent Baroque modifications during the 17th century.

The nuclear power station generates 15 terawatt-hours of electricity annually, supplying approximately twenty percent of the Czech Republic's total electricity consumption.

The facility includes specialized storage for used nuclear fuel, completed in 1995, with capacity for 194 CASTOR containers.
