Lednice
Lednice (Czech pronunciation: [ˈlɛdɲɪtsɛ]; German: Eisgrub) is a municipality and village in Břeclav District in the South Moravian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 2,200 inhabitants. It is known as part of Lednice–Valtice Cultural Landscape, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Lednice consists of two municipal parts (in brackets population according to the 2021 census):
Lednice is located about 7 kilometres (4 mi) northwest of Břeclav and 45 km (28 mi) south of Brno. It lies in a flat landscape in the Lower Morava Valley. The Thaya River flows through the northern part of the municipal territory. Stará Dyje and Zámecká Dyje, which are canals of the Thaya, also flow through the territory.
There are several large fishponds. Their territory, together with the immediate surroundings, is protected as the Lednické rybníky National Nature Reserve.
The first written mention of Lednice is from 1222 under its Latin name Izgruobi, as a property of the Weisen/Orphanus family. In the mid-13th century, it was passed into the hands of the House of Liechtenstein and its fortunes had been tied inseparably to the members of this noble family.
Lednice is known for viticulture and wine-making. The municipality lies in the Mikulovská wine subregion.
Lednice is the terminus of the short Břeclav–Lednice railway line that operates only on weekends from April to October. The line is operated with old rolling stock - steam engine pulled trains or diesel cars.
In 1996, the Lednice–Valtice Cultural Landscape was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as "an exceptional example of the designed landscape that evolved in the Enlightenment and afterwards under the care of a single family." Lednice contains a palace and the second largest castle park in the country, which covers 170 km2 (66 sq mi).
