An enchanted castle is said once to have stood on Kamenný vrch near Ludvíkovice. Its owner sold himself to the devil during a card game. Then the whole castle collapsed. Two figures wrapped in black still roam here at night: Knight Hilarius and his gambling companion. Another legend also tells of a White Lady appearing here. (See Děčín.)
