Studanka: Hotels and Accommodations

The restored statue of Saint George stands in Studánka’s village square. It bears the date 1850 and has been protected as a cultural monument since 2008.

Culture and History

Georg Böhm moved to Studánka in 1830 and devoted himself to artistic stonework there. His works include, in particular, stone crosses measuring 4 to 5 metres in height, as well as richly decorated columns with statues and wayside shrines. He focused on this work especially from 1830 to 1850; his work presumably reached its peak with the statue of Saint George, created in 1850.

During the celebrations marking the municipality’s anniversary, the wayside shrine Boží muka was unveiled and decorated with ceramic images of saints. The probable origins of „Schőnbrunn – Krásné Studánky“ as a knightly residence can be dated to around 1300. Studánka was first mentioned in writing in 1407.
