Veselí nad Moravou  - originally a merchants settlement founded at the crossing of trade routes. A pub used to stand here in which the guests might have made merry …..  – this probably gave the name to the town – Veselí (“Merry-making”).

Today, Veselí is a town with nearly twelve thousands inhabitants. It is situated in the fruitful lowlands of Moravian Slovakia and surrounded by the White Carpathians in the southeast, by fields and bottomland forests in the west and by a near silhouette of the Chriby Mountains in the north. A town swamped in greenery with sparkling bodies of water – the Morava River, its dead arms, many ponds and the Bata-Canal. The town is an important traffic and railway junction with good connection to Slovakia, whose borderline is not far from here. It is also a great starting point for trips to its broad environs: to nature beauties and sights, wine-shops and historical wine cellars, still living traditions and folklore. The cyclists can enjoy a quite dense network of cycle paths and bike trails, while the hikers and the water and church tourists can find a lot of interesting places here.

Are you coming to us for any reason, be cordially welcome to Veselí -  and have merry fun here!
