Nový Poddvorov

  • Area: 297 ha
  • Population: 168
  • Altitude: 246 asml

01Today´s name of the village of Nový Poddvorov as well as that of neighboring village - Starý Poddvorov – are based on the defunct village of Potvorovice (and subsequently the town Potvorova), which belonged to the Velehrad´s monastery and was completly destroyed during the Czech-Hungarian wars in the second half of the 15th century. Until now it has remained the only route named Kosteliska.

As late as 1793, under the reign of Emperor Josef II., what we know as Nový Poddvorov was established. It happened in the dry fields of the Mutěnice landscape, fifteen kilometers west of Hodonin. According to the typical garb, the new settlers came from surrounding areas of Hanácko. Because of the high quality soil it is no surprise that new residents started with agriculture and winegrowing. Some of their wines are still doing well here. In the region there has also been natural gas production since the 40´s of the 20th century.

The Day of Open Cellars is held here in June. A new 30 meter tall tower is the biggest tourist attraction in the area. It has been built on the highest point of the region and its specific design highlights the winding tower as an underlying important symbol of oil extraction in the wider area of Podluží and Hodonínsko.
