Žerotínovo Náměstí

Picturesque lanes thread northeast from Dolní nám to Žerotínovo Náměstí, named after the Žerotíns, a landowning family who set Velké Losiny's gruesome 17th-century witch trials in motion. Here you'll find the green-domed landmark of St Michael church (kostel sv Michala), with its robust baroque interior. Among the furnishings is a rare painting of a pregnant Virgin Mary. Wrapped around the entire block is an active Dominican seminary (Dominikánský klášter).

Nearby is the tiny round Chapel of St Jan Sarkander (kaple sv Jana Sarkandra) named after a local priest who died under torture in 1620 for refusing to divulge false confessions. It's built on the site of the jail where he died, part of which is preserved in the cellar.
