A Jesuit treasure is supposedly still hidden in the Renaissance château at Čejkovice. According to legend, the monks once preferred to be killed rather than surrender it to greedy knights. The treasure is said to open on Good Friday during the reading of the Passion, and only then can it be recovered.
