On the northwestern edge of Tišnov you will find the natural monument Květnice, reaching an altitude of 470 m. It consists of two peaks, which are followed by steep slopes separated by a wide saddle. Back in the 1930s, there was an extensive rocky steppe and forest-steppe, but now both peaks are forested. In 1950, Květnice was declared a state natural monument, but in 1992 it was declared only a natural monument.
