Wooden Chapel of Our Lady and St. Sophie

Highlight • Religious Site

In the family-owned woodworking businesses, Count Jindřich Kolowrat-Krakowský commissioned this chapel in 1939. It is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and Saint Sophia and was built as a memorial to the Count's first wife, Sofia Nikolaevna Trubetskaya, who died in 1938. The mother of four of the Count's five children lived to be only 38 years old.

Přimda Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

The ruins of the Romanesque castle Přimda (German castle Pfraumberg) are located on the high, widely visible mountain Přimda (848 m above sea level) northwest of the small town of the same name in western Bohemia near the border with Bavaria. The residential tower built in the 20s of the 12th century, together with the Prague Castle, is one of the oldest stone castles in Bohemia.

The freely accessible ruin is a popular hiking and excursion destination. From the town of Přimda below the castle, which is a few kilometers away from the D5 motorway, the continuation of the federal motorway 6 from Nuremberg via the Waidhaus border crossing and on to Plzeň and Prague, hiking trails with some short but steep climbs lead to the castle. The small settlement of Mílov is located south of the castle hill.

Bělá nad Radbuzou (German Weißensulz) is a town in Plzeňský kraj in the Czech Republic. It is located at the mouth of the Bezděkovský potok (Pössigkauer Bach) in the Radbuza in the west of Bohemia, about ten kilometers east of the Bavarian market town Eslarn and belongs to the Okres Domažlice.
In addition to the church in the town, two stone bridges are worth seeing, the smaller one leads over the Bezděkovský potok, the larger one over the Radbuza and was built from 1703 to 1723 at the suggestion of Anna Marie Terezie Metternich, owner of the Bela estate. It replaced a previously existing wooden bridge. The bridge has eight arches and six piers. Each pillar is decorated with a figure of a saint.
