Mouřínov · STORY FROM THE ATLAS

Hutterite Treasures

Treasures of the Hutterites, Anabaptists expelled from the country in 1622, are allegedly buried here. Three enormous barrels stand in the filled-in cellars. A black rooster perches on one, a black dog sits on the second, and a black-clad Hutterite on the third. The entrance opens only on Good Friday. Another treasure is said to lie in a cellar beneath the garden of house no. 22. Tradition says only three sons of three sisters can dig it up, without speaking a single word as they work.
