Kameničná is home to dated religious and memorial sites, historical connections, routes through the Orlické Mountains and local events.

History and Culture

The Chapel of the Holy Trinity in Kameničná was completed in 1863 and consecrated on 29 September 1867. The stone Marian column is dated 1681 and stands in a well-maintained park behind the school. The cemetery in Kameničná was consecrated on 23 June 1878.

Kameničná formerly belonged to the Lords of Litice. In 1809, the village belonged to the Žamberk estate, whose seat was Žamberk.

At the site called “Na hradě” in Suchá, remains of the moat of a 13th-century castle have been preserved. The so-called Královská cesta runs through the Suchá forest. The Plague Column stands at a place where residents who died in a plague epidemic are buried. A local legend says that the tears of an enchanted princess spring from the source below the castle, which is still called “U princezny” today.
