Zelenecká Lhota: Hotels and Accommodation

Local History and Architectural Heritage

The stone Calvary group Boží muka in Zelenecká Lhota was erected in 1773 at the expense of the municipality. The Calvary group on a pedestal is also a registered immovable cultural monument dating from 1772 and is considered an example of late Baroque sculpture. Linden trees were first planted around the stone Calvary group Boží muka in 1775. In 2008, it was transported away for restoration and ceremonially reconsecrated on 12 September 2009. Following an attempted theft in which the statue of the Virgin Mary was damaged, the Calvary group was restored in 2008 and again in 2018–2019.

The Chapel of the Holy Trinity in Zelenecká Lhota was built in 1910. A memorial plaque commemorating the soldiers who fell in the First World War of 1914–1918 is located at the chapel. The cemetery on Příhon was built in 1908 and consecrated on 28 June 1908.
