Dzbel: Hotels and Accommodations

Nature and Trails

The Kladecko nature trail is suitable for hiking and mountain biking. Its stations focus on vanished settlements and sites of former iron ore mining. North of Dzbel lies the protected Na Kozénku natural monument. It protects meadow communities and a disused limestone quarry.

History

The iron ore mined in Ródnéch north of Dzbel was smelted in a nearby furnace at Hirtův mlýn below the village. In Dzbel, flax was cultivated on a larger scale and woven into linen for domestic use.

Culture

The Chapel of St. Anne stands behind Dzbel railway station. It has an east-facing façade with corner pilasters and a volute-crowned attic gable. Dzbel also has a chapel of the Virgin Mary. The brick building has a rectangular ground plan and a semicircular ending; a small hexagonal roof turret sits in the middle of the ridge of its gabled roof.
