Town of Nové Hrady
(New Castle)
Municipality of JíloviceWelcome at the Ecomuseum Ruze
The Ecomuseum Ruze envisions drawing
attention to our region in eastern South Bohemia by creating a “museum without walls”. Nature,
culture, and history are interpreted on site, involving local communities
and using stories, sites, trails, monuments, and other symbols. The key is
presenting the regional heritage as a living, dynamic process.

The core of the Ecomuseum is a network of historical workshops and working places. Other sites of high natural or cultural heritage value in the landscape will be highlighted as well.The Czech Emigration Museum Kojakovice and the Historic Novohradska Forge in Nove Hrady are the main visitor centers for the Ecomuseum Ruze.
