Several stone sculptures stand beside the church. The sandstone statue of St John of Nepomuk bears the year 1766 on its pedestal, while the sandstone statue of the Archangel Michael bears the year 1767. The sandstone statue of the Cross beside the church has the year 1772 inscribed on its pedestal.

The Ostatková zábava celebration, featuring the burial of Masopust, takes place in Rozsochy every year on the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday. At the end of 2025, it was added to the list of intangible elements of the traditional folk culture of the Vysočina Region. The Masopust burial ritual is based on defined ceremonial roles, including a master of ceremonies, bell ringers, a military guard, gravediggers, a widow and a priest.
