Sights

Church of Saint Nicholas

The Church of Saint Nicholas is the oldest church in the Giant Mountains Foothills area. It was built in 1557, when it replaced an old wooden church. The tower was added in 1700.[7]

The Horní Branná Castle was built as a Renaissance aristocratic residence in the second half of the 16th century. The sgraffito decoration dates from 1582. In 1627–1628, Kristina Poniatowská lived on the castle and was visited by John Amos Comenius. Today the building is used for commercial purposes.[8]

The baroque hospital was built in 1709 by Count Harrach for the count's elderly servants. In 1987, the hospital was demolished and replaced by its copy. Only the original Chapel of Saint Aloysius has been preserved.[9]
