Borovany Monastery, Religious monastery in Borovany, Czech Republic.
The monastery complex features stone walls, multiple courtyards, and a central church with baroque architectural elements throughout its construction.
Founded in 1455, the structure underwent transformation in 1785 when authorities converted the original monastery into a castle following its dissolution.
The monastery houses exhibitions about regional traditions, religious practices, and architectural developments from the medieval period through the baroque era.
Visitors can access guided tours in multiple languages from April through October, with special arrangements available for groups during winter months.
The monastery contains a collection of preserved medieval manuscripts detailing agricultural practices and herbal medicine preparations from the 15th century.
