The Opatovice Treasure

Somewhere inside the hill also lies a treasure once hidden there in barrels by the monks of Opatovice. It is said that, out of excessive caution, they passed the barrels off as wine. When the local lord discovered their true contents, he had them emptied and refilled with wine. He returned them to the monks in that condition and kept the real treasure for himself.
