Overview

Českopis was a Czech colour monthly magazine focused on interesting places in the Czech Republic. It was published from March 2006 to May 2009 by the Prague-based publisher Nexus Publishing s.r.o. In its first year it appeared as a bimonthly before becoming a monthly. The magazine was registered by the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic on 6 March 2006 and was assigned ISSN 1801-7258. It was printed by Triangl Praha and distributed nationwide by Mediaprint Kapa Pressegrosso s.r.o. and ALL Prodiction s.r.o. Each issue of the monthly had 84 pages and around fifty articles. The content was dominated by topographical articles, tips for trips, and curiosities related to local history, natural history, history, important personalities, and unique or curious features of the Czech Republic. It also covered local events and customs, regional gastronomy, and offered tips for trips abroad within the EU. Every issue included an interview with a well-known Czech personality. All editions were conceptually assembled to bring interesting facts from across the whole Czech Republic and to highlight lesser-known tourist destinations, half-forgotten stories, and interesting events. A significant benefit of the magazine was its adoption and reprinting of popular radio programmes (such as Václav Žmolík's "Po Česku" and "Divnopis aneb Proč se to tak jmenuje?"), travel projects (such as Tisícovky.cz and the Club of Railway Travellers), and the well-known television series "Šumná města" by David Vávra and Radovan Lipus. The magazine also carried advertising and reader competitions with valuable prizes. Every article was accompanied by colour photographs and GPS coordinates. Pages were numbered, with a table of contents at the beginning and the imprint on page 3. The content was intended to motivate readers toward tourist activities and discovering their homeland. The magazine was founded by Irena Pekovová, who served as editor-in-chief from 2006 to 2008. Afterwards the magazine was led by the media-known supervisor Kateřina Hamrová, with Karel Křtěn as editor-in-chief. Českopis also initiated the establishment of a club of its supporters and promoted its activities. Club members contributed content through articles and photographs, and the most active were rewarded with a year's subscription to the magazine. The magazine ceased publication in May 2009.
