Culture and History
The Dalimilova rozhledna is a faithful replica of the historic Kaiser Wilhelm Tower, which stood on Sněžník from 1899 to 1973.
The Paprsek mountain chalet was built in 1932 in the cadastral area of Velké Vrbno and was originally called “Slezský Dům” (Silesian House).
The Chapel of Saint Christopher was built in 2009 next to the Paprsek mountain hotel as a replacement for a chapel demolished in Velké Vrbno. On 26 September 2009, it was consecrated together with a bell dating from 1925 from the vanished settlement of Grund Messinghammer. The chapel is located in the immediate vicinity of the Paprsek mountain hotel, which lies at the junction of the Hrubý Jeseník, Rychlebské hory and Králický Sněžník mountain ranges.
