Jindřichovice · STORY FROM THE ATLAS

The ghost of the woman walled in alive

On summer nights at Jindřichovice château, lamentations came from the tower and a White Lady haunted the building. Anyone who saw her soon suffered misfortune. She was the lord's daughter, whom her father had walled alive into the tower in her wedding dress after she confessed she had found her own bridegroom, while he wanted to marry her advantageously to another man.
