Kluky is a municipality and village in Mladá Boleslav District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 70 inhabitants. The village is well preserved and is protected by law as a village monument zone.
Kluky is located about 13km (08miles) west of Mladá Boleslav and 40km (30miles) northeast of Prague. It lies in the Jizera Table.
The first written mention of Kluky is from 1264. The village was owned by less important aristocratic families. After the Battle of White Mountain, it was acquired by the Jesuits.[2]
In Kluky is the train station called Trnová, located on the railway line Mělník–Mladějov, but in the off season it is only in operation on weekends.[3]
The almost entire built-up area is protected as a village monument zone. The village includes an extensive set of smaller cottages on narrow plots, among which timbered multi-storey houses from the end of the 18th century predominate.[4]
