Ratiboř benches

At the confluence of the Ratibořka and the Bečva

Ratiboř benches

The lowest place in the Ratiboř cadastre is the confluence of the Vsetínská Bečva and Ratibořka at an altitude of 325 m.

On the other hand, the highest point of Ratiboř is the peak of Drastihlava (695 m), followed by Ratibořský Grůň (678 m) and Křížový (670 m). All peaks form one ridge.

  • At the confluence of the rivers, Václav III planned to build the Cistercian monastery Thronus Regnis at the beginning of the 14th century. This event is the subject of an information panel on the Forgotten Fates of Thronus Regnis nature trail not far from this bench.
  • During the Second World War, partisan meetings were often held at the mature oak tree next to the bridge over the Ratibořka River.
  • The nearby bridge over the Bečva is new. The old bridge was blown up by the German occupiers at the end of World War II.

In the past, the confluence was a popular bathing spot for children. This place was also popular with fishermen.
