Fantastic all-round view - If the tower is open, it is essential to climb (20 Kr)!

Way of the Cross of Zeidler (Calvary in Brtníky)

Highlight (Segment) • Religious Site

Imposing, how to try to restore the old beauty. In northern Bohemia there are a number of good and not so well-preserved crossroads. Here you have a little insight, how such paths are designed / were.

The centre of Zeidler is dominated by the splendour of the villa of the textile magnate Johann Klinger, today a home for disabled people; the remains of the Klinger family crypt stand at the upper end of the former cemetery.

Chapel of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, Vlčí Hora

Highlight • Religious Site

Chapel of Our Lady of Mount Carmel

Chapel of Our Lady of Mount Carmel
The town chapel, also considered a church due to its size, was built in 1870. Interestingly, despite its small size, it had wooden pillars above the side aisles. It was consecrated on October 17, 1870. Electricity was supplied to the chapel in 1929. Six years after the acquisition of the clock tower, a second tower was built above the entrance. After 1945, when the German-speaking inhabitants were expelled, it began to decay. In the 1990s, basic security measures were implemented in the chapel. The chapel was completely renovated from 2009 to 2010. Today, it serves parishes and also supports the cultural life of the village.

Today, I took out the Rölke Wander- und Naturführer Böhmische Schweiz for the first time in a long time and was inspired to take a trip to a very exciting area. Together with @B Özer, we set off from Brtníky (German Zeidler) on a geologically, scenically, and botanically very interesting tour.
The tours in the book are written in a …

There I was again with my favorite neighbors in the Czech Republic 😊
The weather was even better than reported and so we started at 9 am in the free parking lot in Zeidler. On the entire tour I was alone until shortly before the end and I enjoyed the silence to the fullest. For me, the highlights on the …

Tour 20 from the Rother Hiking Guide Bohemian Switzerland - Bohemian Central Uplands.
After breakfast, I drove from Schönlinde to Zeidler today to hike this tour. I'm sure I've hiked something like this before, a few years ago. However, since the forest looks different now, it's a new experience. After Zeidlerburg, you have to walk a stretch of unmarked path …

Today we went for a walk in Bohemia. We set off without much preparation. The Wolfsberg on the other side of the road had caught my interest when we arrived and was included in the tour. However, there had been a fire a year before and some of the cladding on the tower was destroyed. Unfortunately, the tower was closed …
