Rakvice is a municipality and village in Břeclav District in the South Moravian Region of the Czech Republic.

In 1604 at the latest, it became a market town, however the Thirty Years' War devastated Rakvice and it became a village again.

The D2 motorway (part of the European route E65) from Brno to Břeclav passes through the municipal territory.

After the original church was completely destroyed during the Thirty Years' War, it was rebuilt and extended in the second half of the 17th century.
