HOPS LIGHTHOUSE

The Hops Lighthouse is the dominant feature of the Hops and Beer Temple. It is located in the heart of the entire area of hop-growing technical monuments. You can ascend the Hops Lighthouse, which also serves as a lookout tower, by elevator or on foot. If you are visiting Žatec only briefly and cannot fit in the whole tour of the Hops and Beer Temple, then just choose the Hops Lighthouse and take the elevator to the top. At night, the Hops Lighthouse is impressively illuminated, and during the most important cultural events in the city, searchlights light up the sky, which is visible up to 30 km away. The architectural design was created by the Žatec studio Huml & Vaníček and won the prestigious Grand Prix of Architects award in 2011.

MAŘENKA VIEWPOINT

The Mařenka viewpoint is located near the village of Teletín above the former Svatojánské currents and offers one of the most impressive views of the Vltava River. The river passes through a deep rocky canyon here, bends into a horseshoe shape, and creates a striking scenery that belongs to the iconic places of the Czech landscape. The Svatojánské currents once marked a dangerous section between Štěchovice and Slapy, where loggers struggled with rapids while navigating to Prague. After the construction of the Štěchovice dam in 1943, they were flooded, and log rafting ceased. The viewpoint is accessible all year round, and nearby are also the viewpoints Máj and Myšák, which are worth a visit.
