Trutnov 

An important center under the slopes of the giant mountains in the valley of the river Úpa. First written mentions come already from the year 1260. From the year 1360 Trutnov is a city. In the year 1866 came with Trutnov to the important battle between Austrian and prussichen armies. Today a monument stands on the summit of ibeničník. In 19.

Century, the early classics church Narození P. Marie and pseudoRoman cemetery chapel build of the end 19 hundred.  

The beginnings of Trutnov are directly connected with the Upa river. In its valley led important trade routes, its partial water led into the Mlynsky nahon(Muehlgraben) drove four mills, a paper factory and one mill, the first factories and water power stations. The Upa(Aupa) river has its name also in 12. Century developed slawischen settlement, the predecessor of the today's city, given. The name Trutnov(Trautenau) the German Ansiedler coming in the second half of the year 13hundred gave to the place.

The first written documents over the city are from the year 1260 in the document of the Aegydius from Schwabenitz, where the city is called still as the second Upa to the difference from settlement first developed in former times Úpa on the place of the today's eingemeideten locality Horni of stars Mesto(Ober Altstadt). The name "Trautnaw" appears for the first time in the document of Wenzel to that II. in the year 1301. Starting from end 14. Century is Trutnov a royal Leibgedingstadt. A small part can be seen by the city wall from the 14.Century to the hill still in the road well Vrchu(Auf), in the Vodni Street(Wassergasse) and in the road well Struze(Rinnelstreet). The water lane strengthened to the year 1961 the Mlynsky flowing under it nahon(Muehlgraben). Under the Rinnelstrasse was there by a Rinnel from the area of the today's park flowing water. The wall of the city has from the 14.Century into half of the 19.Century most retaining the city center. Trutnov was three times conquered in its history - in the year 1421 of Hussiten under January (Johann) Zizka and in the years 1642 and 1647 of Sweden. After the largest Fire in the year 1861 the wall city's were down-torn and the stone was used for renovation of the destroyed city halls.

The today's Trutnov lives with the intensive culture-social life. Music has a large tradition, since the year 1981 festival of the chamber music Trutnover autumn, with us open air music festival with many in and foreign groups with thousands of listeners. Much is also jazz festival Jazzinec, organ festival and Trutnover Advent likes.
