Zelendárky, Natural monument in Protivín, Czech Republic.

Zelendárky is a nature monument made up of ten ponds on the Divišovka stream and its tributary, lying 3 to 5 km east to northeast of Protivín near Nová Ves. The ponds, from 0.9 to 5.5 ha each, form two systems between 400 and 435 m above sea level, with protected banks, dams and wet meadows.

Zelendárky was declared a protected area in 1985 on 30.5681 hectares, and protection began in 1986 under the status of "protected natural creation". Ministry of the Environment decree No. 395/1992 Coll. later reclassified it as a natural monument. The protection covers ten ponds of 0.9 to 5.5 hectares, their banks, dams and adjacent waterlogged meadows.

The name Zelendárky comes from a farmstead north of Nový rybník u Krče. A way of the cross of memorial crosses and a Jewish cemetery stand along the educational trail from Protivín, and a niche shrine by the pond Na Rejčavých shows St Hubert, St Peter, St Eligius and the Virgin Mary.

The Zelendárky educational trail starts in Protivín and passes the ponds closer to town, such as Rabyně, Rabyňka and Švarcenberský, but does not reach the northern Kolářů and Starý u Nové Vsi ponds. A yellow-marked hiking route to Velký and Malý Kamýk and cycle route no. 1091 also cross the area.

The name Zelendárky comes from a farmstead north of Nový rybník u Krče, and the same name was given to the educational trail from Protivín. Along that trail stand a series of memorial crosses and a Jewish cemetery, which visitors pass before reaching the ponds.
