The most important monument is the Church of Saint Lawrence. It was originally a Romanesque church from the late 12th century. Around the 14th century, Gothic modifications took place and the tower was added. Late Baroque modifications were made in the 18th century, but the church preserved its authentic Romanesque-Gothic look.[3][5]

Zbraslavice Castle is a Renaissance castle from the 16th century, built on the site of the former fortress. Baroque modifications took place in the 18th century.[6]

In the northern part of Zbraslavice is a well-preserved Jewish cemetery. It was founded at the end of the 18th century and used until 1932.[7]
