Near the village is Králova hora, the King’s Hill, where a noble residence called Zámek once stood. A Black Lady’s ghost appears here, awaiting release. She holds keys in her mouth, from which flames shoot; they must be pulled out. No one has yet done so, and she still wanders sadly through the woods.
