- Masarykovo náměstí (Main Square) — the heart of Chrudim: long arcaded facades, outdoor cafes, and that compact, lived-in feel where locals meet and market stalls pop up in summer.
- Chrudim Town Hall / Zámek — the town’s historic administrative heart with a tower you can peek up at for views and a building that mixes civic history with occasional exhibitions inside the old chateau spaces.
- Regionální muzeum v Chrudimi (Regional Museum) — small but solid for getting local history, folk costumes, craft traditions and temporary shows that actually explain why the town looks the way it does.
- Muzeum loutek (Puppet Museum) — Chrudim has a proper puppetry tradition; this museum showcases original puppets, stage models and gives a real feel for a living folk art rather than a dusty display.
- Portmoneum

- Portmoneum — a tiny, characterful house-museum hidden among town streets; a great stop if you like quirky interior decorations and intimate, artist-filled rooms you can walk through.
- Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (Kostel Nanebevzetí Panny Marie) — impressive church architecture and atmosphere; worth going inside for stained glass, altars and the quiet contrast to the busy square.
- Former synagogue / Jewish heritage sites — the preserved synagogue building and nearby memorials offer a tangible, solemn window into the town’s Jewish past and are accessible to visitors interested in local history.
- Podzámecké sady & Mírové sady (Castle and Peace Gardens) — pleasant green spaces by the castle and river where locals stroll, kids play and you can catch relaxed views of old town facades without leaving the center.
- Historic burgher houses and hidden courtyards — wander the narrow lanes off the main square to see restored Renaissance and Baroque townhouses, little portals and private courtyards that show real everyday heritage, not just postcard façades.
- Chrudimka riverwalk and cycle paths — an easy, scenic riverside walk or bike ride through and out of town; a quick nature fix and a good way to see local life along the water without needing a car.
