Weisshuhn's Channnel

Weisshuhnův kanál

In the past the channel served as a paper-making race and it is still in service. It was built at the turn of the 20th century on the initiative of Carl Weisshuhn, a businessman, for the operation of the factory and the paper-making plant in Žimrovice.

Wind mill in Chotice

Větrný mlýn v Cholticích

The listed mill of the German type from 1833 is situated in the north of Litultovice in the town section Choltice, where it was transported from nearby Sádek.

Wind mill in Hlavnice

Větrný mlýn v Hlavnici

The wooden wind mill of the column or ram type was built in 1810. It is still well-preserved. In 1974 it got new blades and was re-roofed but the inside milling equipment was not repaired. There is a possibility of interesting accommodation for anybody who has a positive relationship with nature; you can sleep in the main building, which is heated by a stove or a historical oven and in storied historical cabins.
